AB  - The printing process, which is an aesthetically significant process subprocess in garment design, has the potential to
affect the physical properties and sensory comfort of the fabric. Due to its low cost and very fast process period and the
fact that it is environmentally conscious, pigment printing is widely used in the textile industry. This study it’s aimed to
guide the designers in the selection of printing type for piece printing according to the fabric type by considering the print
area and print pattern in the apparel industry. For this purpose, the effects of commonly used pigment printing pastes
on the physical properties and sensorial comfort in knit fabrics of different constructions were studied. To that end, two
different patterns were applied to three knit fabrics with different constructions by using three different pigment printing
methods to assess several features of the fabrics, namely, print quality, air permeability, roughness, compressibility and
bending. As a result of this study, it was observed that the printing application method and print pattern design have a
significant impact on the handle properties of the fabric. Consequently, it was revealed that it is necessary to take into
account the printing application method and print pattern design in the process of printed clothing design. Among the
print types evaluated in this study, the best print type was determined in terms of sensorial comfort and physical
properties. In addition, suggestions were made on the issues to be considered during the print design of print types with
worse comfort and physical properties.
