Abstract: Starting with the development status of weft-knitted three-dimensional jacquard fabric and doublesided computer jacquard circular knitting machine, this paper put forward that three-dimensional jacquard fabrics are widely used in the field of home textiles because of its superior covering performance. At present,the main research direction of this kind of fabric is the mattress, and the application of three-dimensional jacquard weave to garment fabrics is seldom studied. The forming method of weft-knitted three-dimensional jacquard fabric is explained from its jacquard principle, technological principle, and knitting principle. The development of weft-knitted garment fabrics with three-dimensional jacquard weave is introduced from the aspects of the pattern, weave design and three-dimensional effect design, and the development direction of the weft-knitted three-dimensional jacquard fabric is predicted.
