Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a knitted fabric with a pocket which is knitted using a flat knitting machine, and a method of knitting the same.
  • Patent Document 1 describes forming, in a seamless manner, a pocket that is heavy and that excels in shape holding property by forming an upper edge part of the pocket having a rib knitted structure at the upper position of the pocket bag portion, and Patent Document 2 describes reinforcing the upper part of the pocket by forming a rib knitted fabric and the like at the opening that is orthogonal to the knitted structure of the base part, and enhancing the design.
  • the shape of the opening of the pocket particularly tends to deform. Although a constant effect is obtained by carrying out reinforcement and the like in the pocket described in the above patent documents, a pocket that is less likely to lose its shape is desired. It is an object of the present invention to propose a knitted fabric with a high quality pocket which is less likely to lose its shape, and a method of knitting the same.
  • the step of forming the tubular base knitted fabric portion includes the steps of forming a widening stitch by split knitting on the other needle bed, performing tubular knitting using the front and back needle beds at a knitting width corresponding to the pocket bag portion in a region of the stitch row held on the front and back needle beds while forming the base knitted fabric portion, and forming double stitches in the region by transferring a new stitch held on the front and back needle beds formed in the tubular knitting
  • the bind-off process includes a step 1 of forming a widening stitch by split knitting on the other needle bed with respect to stitches of a stitch row to be subjected to the bind-off process held on one needle bed, a step 2 of forming a new stitch by carrying out tubular knitting on the front and back needle beds, and a step 3 of transferring a new stitch held on the front and back needle beds formed in the tubular knitting to form double stitches to reduce the stitches; and the step 2 and the step 3 are repeated sequentially toward a termination side with the double stitches as a starting end.
  • a knitted fabric with a pocket whereby a pocket bag portion is branched with respect to a base knitted fabric portion comprising a ravel prevention portion in the form of a tubular structure arranged at an end on an opening side of the pocket bag portion and a tubular structure and formed by way of a bind-off process formed with respect to the base knitted fabric portion at an upper position of the ravel prevention portion so as to lie along the opening of the pocket bag portion (4); whereby a level difference between the tubular structure and an opening side end of the pocket back portion is small
  • the base knitted fabric portion facing the pocket bag portion can be suppressed from stretching to the lower position, and a pocket which is less likely to lose its shape can be formed.
  • the level difference with the stitch at the termination of the pocket bag portion can be prevented from standing out by forming the tubular base knitted fabric portion with respect to the base knitted fabric portion.
  • the bind-off process knitting provides thickness to the knitted fabric by realizing a front and back two-layer state by carrying out tubular knitting.
  • the double stitches are formed using a new stitch held on the front and back needle beds formed in the tubular knitting, whereby the termination of the secure pocket bag portion can be obtained.
  • the knitted fabric by the present invention is subjected to the bind-off process in which the tubular structure with secure thickness is arranged at the termination of the pocket bag portion.
  • a level difference due to the thickness of the tubular structure is formed with respect to the base knitted fabric, but such a level difference does not stand out according to the formation of the tubular base knitted fabric portion having thickness, and hence a knitted fabric with a pocket in which not only stretching is suppressed but also satisfactory appearance is realized can be obtained.
  • a knitted fabric 1 with a pocket will be described as an embodiment of the present invention.
  • knitting of a tubular base knitted fabric portion 7 front side 7F, back side 7B
  • the flat knitting machine used for the knitting is a two-bed flat knitting machine having a front and a back needle bed, in which the back needle bed is capable of being racked with respect to the front needle bed and in which a plurality of yarn feeders are arranged above the needle beds.
  • the number of needles is less than that used in the actual knitting for the sake of convenience of the explanation.
  • the numbers on the left side in the drawing indicate the knitting steps (S) and (T), the arrow in the lateral direction indicates a knitting direction, and the arrow in the vertical direction indicates a transferring direction.
  • FB indicates the front needle bed
  • BB indicates the back needle bed.
  • the capital letters A to P indicate the knitting needles of the FB and the lower case letters a to p indicate the knitting needles of the BB.
  • Black circles indicate stitches formed in the relevant knitting step, and double circles indicate double stitches.
  • stitches (white circle) held on the knitting needles which do not participate in the knitting of the knitting step the illustration thereof is omitted except for one part.
  • Figs. 1A and 1B are schematic views showing the knitted fabric 1 with a pocket.
  • Fig. 1A is a schematic view of the knitted fabric 1 seen from the front surface. The region surrounded by a thick line indicates the region of the pocket usually found in the conventional technique. That is, a state in which the tubular base knitted fabric portion 7 is not present is shown.
  • Fig. 1B is a view showing a cross-sectional structure of the knitted fabric seen from a chain double dashed line Y-Y.
  • a base knitted fabric portion 2 knitted in the present embodiment is knitted in plain stitches.
  • the widening stitches are formed by known split knitting at a pocket branched portion 3 to become the starting end of a pocket bag portion 4 with respect to the base knitted fabric portion 2 knitted in the direction of the arrow W. Thereafter, the base knitted fabric portion 2 and the pocket bag portion 4 are knitted (See S0 of Fig. 2 to be described later).
  • the pocket bag portion 4 and the base knitted fabric portion 2 are combined to form a two-layered knitted fabric.
  • the base knitted fabric portion 2 on the far side in the plane of drawing is also knitted in front stitches so as to have the same appearance as the stitches of the pocket bag portion 4 on the near side when seen from the pocket opening 6, thus enhancing the quality of the pocket.
  • the tubular bind-off portion 5 is branched at the stitch 10 to form the secure terminating part of the pocket of two layers.
  • a level difference stands out by its secureness and thickness.
  • the tubular base knitted fabric portion 7 is formed, and the deforming force thereof is weakened.
  • the level difference created with the tubular bind-off portion 5 on the pocket opening 6 side does not stand out owing to the thickness of the knitted fabric portion by the formation of the tubular base knitted fabric portion 7, the pocket opening 6 does not widen, and satisfactory appearance is obtained.
  • Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 are knitting diagrams of the tubular bind-off portion 5 of the knitted fabric 1 with the pocket.
  • the knitting steps S0 to S16 shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 will be described below.
