Stretchable Knitted Cell Scaffolds

Knit scaffolds for culturing cells and aiding in the healing of functional tissue are provided. The knit scaffolds have properties aligned with specific tissues for providing optimal tissue growing surfaces including matched biomechanical properties. The scaffolds are made up of knitted material and do not require or utilize a support skeleton for function. Methods of making and using the knit scaffolds are also provided.
