Knitted fabrics with 3D geometry have a good potential for technical applications, especially due to the possibility of developing complex shapes through the knitting process, without major modification of the equipment. The spatial fashioned knitted fabrics obtained by the technique of incomplete rows knitting are characterized by 3D geometries with the highest complexity degree. The designing of such fabrics must take into consideration the two sides of the problem. From the point of wiev of the final 3D shape of the fabrics, the designing has to start from the 3D body of which lateral area gives the fabric geometry. From the knitted fabric point of wiev, the designing has to take into consideration the fashioning lines that generate the spatial geometry. The mathematical modelling of these lines according to their parameters - line increment and stitch dimensions - allows the correlation between the fabric and the 3D body sizes. The paper presents the designing of the fashioning lines of the knitted fabric, considering the two possible cases: straight fashioning lines with constant increment and curved line with variable increment.
