I’m curious how the flexibility of the reformed fabric lasts over dressing/undressing cycles, garment care, and long term storage in a closet. If I’m not careful I can easily stretch out a well made alpaca wool sweater if I remove it too carelessly (from experience!). I wonder how fussy this is.
Also would like to know more about the machine. Many garments are knitted as tube-like structures just look at circular knitting needles, where does this differ and how?
