In spite of the bad conditions of fashion companies: the number of licit wear consumers in Korea are increasing because knit wear gives a body with an comfort action. Domestic knit wear industry, however, doesn't have any standard fur satisfying consumers'needs and for quality estimation on that. So we examined the knit wearers'conception of the quality to broaden the knowledge of knit wear and produce better products. The purpose of this study was to find out the factors of wearer's perception. This study carried out through a qualitative approach. The subject of this study were 17 single women who were 20's and living in Seoul and Kyoungki province. The item of this questionary was as follow: 1) what they know about knit wear and how much they are satisfied with that 2) what the wearers think the problems of knit wear are 3) how knitted wear industry can satisfy consumers's needs and take into account consumer feedback in product development The results of this study were summarized as follows. 1. The wearers had no knowledge about materials, sewing methods, patterns, knitting methods, and gage. 2 The wearers didn't recognize the differences between the products by famous brand and obscure conventional market. For that reason, the high price knit wear wont satisfy wearer. 3. The wearers didn't prefer the revealing their body shapes. 4. Laundering was the big problem which was they chosen the knit wear. They take it for granted that the knit wear needs dry-cleaning or hand-washing. Knit wear industry tries to make it easy laundering by development knit material.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics and symbolism of peony, the traditional noble flower, create knit fashion designer applying the aesthetic beauty of flower, and suggest the various possibility of developing knit fashion design. As for the study method, the study conducted review on literature and previous studies to investigate on history, characteristics, symbolism of peony, and examined various expressive technique through previous studies about fashion design using flower images. To express characteristics of peony in three dimensions, the study investigated and reflected on crochet expressive technique to design 4 women's knitwear. The results are as below. First, as shape of peony is big, voluminous, fancy and noble, it symbolizes wealth and beauty. Including red which is the generally known color of peony, there are yellow, white, pink, purple, green, blue, black, gray, white purple, white color. This study reflected characteristics and symbolism of peony and created knit fashion design applying abundant aesthetic characteristics of flower. Second, crochet method is advantageous as it is operable with thread and hooked crochet hook without time and space restriction, it can create unique fashion design. Crochet knitting on hand knit can diversity changes to express relief textures, and as there is no limit in size, it can be applied to small props to big pieces. This study suggested the various possibility of knit fashion design development and various expressive possibility on modern fashion design.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the structural properties of 100% wool fabrics knitted with various stitch types and to evaluate dimensional stability from shrinkage in wet cleaning and drying. Materials were weft-knitted from twenty-four different stitches with 7 gauge using a computerized flatbed knitting machine. Weight, thickness, density, and length were measured. A domestic washing machine and a tumble dryer were used for the shrinkage test. The results are as follows: Knitted fabrics were divided into 3 groups based on weight per unit area. Porous knits show light weight whilst milano, pintuck, rib stitches belong to the heaviest group. A positive correlation between weight and thickness was found and the same result was obtained for wale density and weight. Dimensional shrinkage of knitted fabrics was increased during repetitive wet cleaning and drying regardless of knit stitches. Especially, fabrics knitted with float, tuck, cable, and links & links stitches samples were contracted more than 15% in the first treatment whereas 2x1 rib stitch showed 1% shrinkage rate. Fisherman and milano stitches contracted in both course and wale direction with similar shrinkage rates. However, porous knits with float and tuck stitches shrank in course direction by 20% as well as cable samples contracted from 5% to 20% after repeated washing and drying. On the other hand, 30% and 15% contraction of wale direction occurred in orderly float and links & links stitches, respectively. Machine dried knits have a higher shrinkage rate than air-dried knits, but the drying method did not affect to the direction of contraction. In conclusion, variations of knit, tuck, and float stitches affect knit construction and dimensional stability from shrinkage in wet cleaning and drying of wool knitted fabrics.

본 연구의 목적은 제7차 교육과정에서 초, 중, 고등학교 실과(기술 가정) 담당 교사가 인식하고 있는 의생활 교육의 실태와 실과(기술 가정) 교과서의 의생활 교육내용의 적정성을 알아보는 데 있다. 연구 자료는 전국에서 초등학교, 중학교. 고등학교 실과 및 기술 가정교과의 의생활 영역을 지도하고 있는 교사를 대상으로 우편을 통한 설문지로 수집하였으며, 203 3부를 최종 분석에 사용하였다. 자료는 SPSS/WIN 12.0 프로그램을 이용하여 평균. 표준편차, 백분율. t-test. Oneway-ANOVA와 사후검증 Duncan을 실시하였다. 본 연구를 통해 밝혀진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 의생활 실습실 설비 실태는 초등학교의 경우 24%이고 중학교 97%. 고등학교 78% 정도였다. '재봉틀 다루기'가 나오는 초등학교에 75%정도가 재봉틀이 없어 사용하지 못하였다. 둘째. 실과(기술 가정) 의생활 교육내용의 학습량에 대해 50%의 교사들이 적당하다고 하였으며 그 중 초등학교 교사는 '재봉틀 다루기'를, 중학교 교사는 '반바지 만들기'를. 초등학교 교사는 '식탁보와 커튼 만들기'와 '베개커버나 가방 만들기' 등 실습 내용에 대해 학습량이 많다고 인식하였다. 셋째, 실과(기술 가정)의 의생활 교육내용 내용수준에 대해 초등학교 교사들은 전체적으로 보통으로 인식하였는데. 그 중 초등학교 교사의 80%는 '재봉틀 다루기'와 '쿠션이나 방석 만들기'의 내용을 어렵다고 인식하였고, 중학교 교사는 특히 '여러가지 옷감의 종류'와 '반바지 만들기'의 내용을, 고등학교 교사는 '식탁보나 커튼 만들기' 등 실습관련 내용을 어렵다고 하였다. 넷째 실과(기술 가정) 의생활 교육내용의 중요도에 대해 초등학교 교사는 '손바느질의 기초바느질 익히기'와 '손바느질로 주머니 만들기'를 중요하다고 인식하였고 '쿠션이나 방석 만들기'의 중요도를 낮게 인식하고 있었다. 중학교 교사는 '반바지 만들기'를, 고등학교 교사는 '식탁보와 커튼 만들기'와 '베개커버나 가방 만들기'와 같이 실습을 주로 하는 교육내용의 중요도를 낮게 인식하였다. 이상과 같은 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 다음과 같이 제언을 하고자 한다. 초등학교 실과교과에서 의생활 수업을 효과적으로 하기 위해서는 실습실과 재봉틀 등 설비를 반드시 갖추어야 한다. 또한 초등학교 실과 의생활 교육내용요소 중 학습량이 많고. 내용수준이 어려우며, 중요도가 낮다고 인식한 재봉틀 사용에 관한 교육내용은 이수 학년을 이동하거나 삭제 또는 쉽게 재구성하는 방안을 고려해야 할 것이다. 실과(기술 가정) 의생활 교육내용 중 학습량, 내용수준, 중요도에 대해 부정적인 견해가 나타난 것이 주로 실습활동내용이었다. 따라서 의생활 교육내용의 적정화를 위해서는 의생활 실습활동내용을 학생의 활동을 위주로 하여 학생의 생활과 익숙한 경험을 중심으로 구성할 필요가 있다.
