Abstract
Experiments were carried out in this research paper with knitted fabrics using Fair Isle Knitting techniques as EM shielding. Five different patterns were designed and knitted on a domestic knitting machine by using punch cards. The samples were knitted with 100% cotton yarns and conductive yarns.
