Answer» The main difference between Knitting and weaving is that knitting means to entangle the threads in such a WAY that they run parallel to each other whereas in weaving the threads are warped to form a criss-cross pattern.Another difference is that knitting is done by PULLING the current thread through the loops of the preceding ROW which is again made into a loop as the basis of the next row whereas weaving is done using a loom that holds the WARP in place while the weft is woven through it. A PIECE of knitted fabric is very stretchable whereas a woven fabric is much elastic.
