Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a knitting method of a knitted fabric of knitting a knitted fabric having a pattern formed based on an apparent difference between a first knitting yarn and a second knitting yarn having an apparent difference from the first knitting yarn using a flat knitting machine.
  • the lacy knitted fabric includes a knitted fabric in which a colored second knitting yarn is arranged so as to get entangled in part of a base knitted fabric portion comprising a transparent or translucent first knitting yarn (see Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 of Patent Document 1).
  • the lacy pattern is formed by the apparent difference between the first knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn.
  • Patent Document 1 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 9-228204
  • a knitting method which involves the start or end needle separating the mesh of the knitted fabric to which the yarn is to be joined using a spilt-stitch technique, whereby one mesh leg remains on the start or end needle and the other mesh leg is hung on the opposite needle before forming meshes with the start or end needle and all other needles in this row with the yarn to be integrated and then returning the second leg to the start or end needle.
  • This document discloses a knitting method of a knitted fabric using a flat knitting machine having at least a pair of front and back needle beds, stitches being transferable between the front and back needle beds, wherein a step A of knitting a base stitche row using a first knitting yarn, a step B of selecting a single or plural target stitch(es) of the base stitch row differs from the first knitting yarn, with respect to each selected target stitch, and a step C of overlapping the target stitch(es) selected in the step B and a split stitch(es) formed with respect to the target stitch(es), are repeated, wherein reselection of target stitch(es) is performed in the step B when repeating to form a pattern based on an apparent difference between the first knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn.
  • a knitting method of a lacy knitted fabric by a flat knitting machine is not currently proposed as opposed to the proposal of the knitting method of the lacy knitted fabric by the warp knitting machine.
  • the direction in which the stitches are formed is different for the warp knitting machine and the flat knitting machine, and thus the knitting method in the warp knitting machine cannot be applied to the flat knitting machine as is.
  • a knitting method of a knitted fabric of the present invention is a knitting method of a knitted fabric using a flat knitting machine having at least a pair of front and back needle beds, stitches being transferable between the front and back needle beds, wherein following steps A to C are repeatedly carried out.
  • Step A Knitting a base stitch row using a first knitting yarn.
  • Step B Selecting a single or plural target stitch(es) of the base stitch row knitted in the step A, and forming a split stitch using a second knitting yarn, of which appearance differs from the first knitting yarn, with respect to each selected target stitch.
  • Step C Overlapping the target stitch(es) selected in the step B and the split stitch(es) formed with respect to the target stitch(es).
  • reselection of target stitch(es) is performed in the step B when repeating to form a pattern based on an apparent difference between the first knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn.
  • the "split knitting” herein is the knitting operation of transferring the stitch (target stitch) held on one of the front and back needle beds to the knitting needle of the opposing other needle bed at the same time as forming a new stitch (split stitch) so as to be pulled out from the target stitch on the knitting needle of the one needle bed, as described in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 4-73245 .
  • the split stitch is held on the knitting needle on which the target stitch is originally held.
  • the split stitch is formed with respect to the target stitch, and the target stitch is returned to the knitting needle on which the split stitch is held to overlap the split stitch and the target stitch.
  • the split stitch is formed on the knitting needle X while transferring the target stitch to the knitting needle Y (knitting needle opposing knitting needle X) of the back needle bed, and the target stitch is returned from the knitting needle Y to the knitting needle X.
  • the split stitch is thus overlapped on the front side of the target stitch when viewed from the front needle bed.
  • the first knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn in the knitting method of the knitted fabric of the present invention merely need to be of different type.
  • the first knitting yarn for configuring the base stitch row may be a transparent or translucent knitting yarn
  • the second knitting yarn may be a colored, in particular, a colored opaque knitting yarn.
  • the second knitting yarn thicker than the first knitting yarn may be used, or the first knitting yarn may be a transparent or translucent knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn may be a colored knitting yarn thicker than the first knitting yarn.
  • both the first knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn may be knitting yarn of different colors.
  • At least one of the first knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn is preferably a heat sealing yarn.
  • the first knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn both may be the heat sealing yarn.
  • a knitted fabric is knitted using a flat knitting machine having at least a pair of front and back needle beds, stitches being transferable between the front and back needle beds, the knitted fabric including a base stitch row knitted with a first knitting yarn; and a split stitch row comprising a single or plural split stitch(es) knitted with a second knitting yarn having an apparent difference from the first knitting yarn, and overlapped on a stitch of the base stitch row.
  • the knitted fabric has a characteristic in including a pattern based on an apparent difference between the first knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn.
  • the knitted fabric of the present invention can be knitted in which the split stitch knitted with the second knitting yarn is overlapped on part of the base stitch row knitted with the first knitting yarn, and a pattern based on the apparent difference between the first knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn is formed.
  • a lacy knitted fabric in which the second knitting yarn appears lifted up can be knitted if the first knitting yarn configuring the base stitch row is a transparent or translucent knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn is a colored opaque knitting yarn.
  • a lacy knitted fabric in which the second knitting yarn appears lifted up can be knitted by using the second knitting yarn thicker than the first knitting yarn.
  • a pattern based on the difference in color of the first knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn as shown in Fig. 4 of the embodiment, can be formed if the first knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn are both knitting yarn of different colors.
  • a shape of the base stitch row formed by the first knitting yarn can be fixed by using the heat sealing yarn for the first knitting yarn, and as a result, the shape of the entire knitted fabric can be maintained.
  • the shape of the split stitch formed by the second knitting yarn can be fixed by using the heat sealing yarn for the second knitting yarn.
  • the split stitch is merely overlapped on part of the base stitch row, and thus the shape of the split stitch may be deformed when the knitted fabric is pulled strongly. Such a problem does not arise if the split stitch is formed with the heat sealing yarn and thermal processing is performed on the knitted fabric after knitting to fix the shape of the split stitch.
  • the knitting described in each embodiment describes a knitting example using a two bed flat knitting machine having at least a pair of needle beds, that is, a front needle bed (hereinafter referred to as FB) and a back needle bed (hereinafter referred to as BB), stitches being transferrable between the front and back needle beds.
  • the knitting needles arranged in the needle beds of the flat knitting machine are latch needles with a latch.
  • the flat knitting machine to be used may be a two bed flat knitting machine equipped with a transfer jack bed or may be a four bed flat knitting machine.
  • the knitting needle to be used may be a compound needle including a needle main body with a hook and a slider for opening and closing the hook.
  • Fig. 1 is a knitting step diagram schematically showing the knitting method of the knitted fabric according to the present invention.
  • S + number in the figure indicates the number of the knitting step
  • the black dot indicates the knitting needle arranged in the FB and the BB
  • the arrow indicates the transferring direction of the stitches.
  • a base stitch row 10 is knitted on the knitting needles A to I of the FB using a transparent non-heat sealing yarn (first knitting yarn: displayed in thin line).
  • the stitch to carry out split knitting in S2 of the stitches configuring the base stitch row 10 is selected as target stitch 1 (others are non-target stitches 0). Which stitch to select as the target stitch 1 may be appropriately determined depending on what kind of pattern to form in the knitted fabric.
  • the split knitting is carried out on the target stitch 1 using a white heat sealing yarn (second knitting yarn : displayed in thick line) thicker than the first knitting yarn.
  • the split knitting is carried out by forming a new stitch (split stitch 2) by pulling out the second knitting yarn from the target stitch 1 to be transferred while transferring the target stitch 1 from the knitting needle of the FB to the knitting needle of the BB.
  • a split stitch row 20 comprising a plurality of split stitches 2 knitted in a series of second knitting yarn is formed.
  • the target stitch 1 transferred to the knitting needle of the BB in the split knitting of S2 is returned to the knitting needle of the FB, where it was held in S1.
  • the target stitch 1 held on the knitting needle A of the FB in S1 is returned to the knitting needle A of the FB in S3.
  • the base stitch row 10 and the split stitch row 20 are overlapped.
  • the split stitch 2 is overlapped on the front side of the target stitch 1 of the base stitch row 10.
  • Fig. 3 shows a partially enlarged photograph of the knitted fabric actually knitted.
  • a lacy knitted fabric can be knitted in which the white second knitting yarn appears as if entangled with respect to the knitted fabric acting as the base, which is knitted with a colorless transparent first knitting yarn, and the portion formed by the white second knitting yarn appears as if lifted up from the knitted fabric acting as the base.
  • tapestry wall hanging, interior accessories such as coasters and table clothes, curtains, and the like can be knitted.
  • Fig. 4 is a view showing a partially enlarged photograph of the knitted fabric that has been knitted. As shown in Fig. 4 , a pattern is formed in the knitted fabric based on the difference in color between the first knitting yarn and the second knitting yarn in the knitted fabric of the second embodiment. Similar to the first embodiment, what kind of pattern to form in the knitted fabric changes depending on which stitch of the base stitch row 10 to select as the target stitch 1 in S1 and S2 of Fig. 1 .
  • the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the embodiments described above, and may be appropriately changed within a scope not deviating from the gist of the present invention.
  • the knitting shown in the embodiments may be carried out using the compound needle (refer to Japanese Patent No. 2917146 , for example) including a needle main body, and a slider with two blades.
  • the split stitch in the finished knitted fabric has a shape slightly different from that in the loop diagram referencing Fig. 2 , but it should be easily recognized by those skilled in the art that such a split stitch is formed by split knitting by following the path of the knitting yarn of the split stitch.
  • the second knitting yarn used may be changed in the middle of knitting the knitted fabric.
  • a knitted fabric of a wide variety of patterns can be knitted by combining the knitting method of the knitted fabric of the present invention and the intarsia knitting.
