  When applying the knitting method of Document 1, especially in the case of knitting yarn that does not slide and expands / contracts, the knitted rib hem rib having a formed set-up portion is used as a crossover yarn at the start end of the rib structure that is worn and stretched. However, when the stretched and reduced stitch is returned to its original shape, it may be stretched out by the resistance of the yarn and protrude from the knitted fabric, which may make it look bad and stand out. The present invention provides a knitting method and a knitted fabric that improve the appearance by suppressing the protruding of the crossover yarn at the set-up portion even in the case of a knitting yarn that is slippery and does not expand and contract.

  The knitting method of the present invention is a method of setting up a rib structure composed of a set-up portion and a rib portion, which is performed using a flat knitting machine having at least a pair of front and back needle beds, and alternates between one needle bed and the other needle bed. Passing the knitting yarn over to the beginning of the set-up portion, forming a flat bag knitting on the knitting needle that locks the stitches or hooks of at least one needle bed and ending the set-up portion, and the set-up portion The method includes a step of forming a twisted stitch while forming the start end and the end of the end portion, and a step of moving the end stitch of the set-up portion that shifts to an arrangement of rib portions connected after the formation of the set-up portion.

  Further, the formation of the twisted stitch is performed on the stitches that do not move in the movement process of the terminal stitches of the set-up portions that shift to the arrangement of the rib portions.

  The knitted fabric of the present invention is characterized in that the stitches of the set-up portion connected to the arrangement of the rib structure in which the front and back stitches are regularly arranged are provided with twists.

  According to the knitting method of the present invention, by forming a twisted stitch, the length of the knitting yarn is reduced, and the force for returning the stitch that has become smaller as the knitting yarn is stretched is increased.

  Further, according to the knitting method of the present invention, the knitting is facilitated by performing the formation of the twisted stitch on the stitch that does not move.

  The knitted fabric produced by the knitting method of the present invention has a good appearance because the protruding of the crossover yarn is suppressed.

  Next, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In this embodiment, the knitting of the set-up portion of the front body 1 having a 3 × 3 rib structure at the hem portion will be described using a two-bed flat knitting machine in which the back needle bed can be racked to the left and right. In the figure, the position of the knitting needle is indicated by alphabets, the hook is indicated by V-shaped, the movement of the stitches to the opposite needle bed is indicated by solid arrows, and the arrows indicated by dotted lines indicate the movement of stitches and yarns. The flat knitting machine to be used may be a four-bed machine.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a front body 1 having a 3 × 3 rib structure according to an embodiment of the present invention. 3 × 3 ribs are arranged at the skirt, which are repeatedly arranged as a basic pattern with the front face having 3 stitches and the back stitch having 3 stitches. The hem rib is composed of a set-up portion 3 and a rib portion 4 that are the starting ends. When the hem ribs are finished, knitting is performed with a lantern, the knitting width is reduced at the armhole portion 5, a yarn feeder is added at the V-neck portion 6, a bind-off is performed at the shoulder portion 7, and the front body 1 is completed.

  FIG. 2 is an image diagram of the set-up portion of the 3 × 3 rib structure according to the embodiment of the present invention. 1 shows a part of the set-up portion 3 in FIG. 1, and the stitches are locked to the knitting needles a, e, f, g, k, l as the front stitches and the knitting needles B, C, D, H, I, J as the back stitches. ing. By forming the twisted stitches 11, the stitches (twisted stitches 11) that have been stretched and reduced are easily returned to the original, so the direction of the dotted arrow indicating the movement of the stitch (knitting yarn) is directed in both directions.

  FIG. 3 is a schematic view of knitting of the set-up portion 3 of the 3 × 3 rib structure according to the embodiment of the present invention. S0 is a knitting for forming a so-called tome that is the starting end of the set-up portion 3. Knitting yarns are alternately passed between the rear needle bed BB and the front needle bed FB. Specifically, the knitting needles A, b, C, d, E, f, G, h, I, j, K, and l are sequentially knitted. The knitting needles A, C, E, G, I, and K of the rear needle bed BB are stitches because the stitches as a take-off thread are locked in the course before S0, and the knitting needles b of the front needle bed FB , D, f, h, j, and l are not stitched, and as a result, are stitched.

  A twist is formed with respect to the knitting needles C and I of S0. After knitting by supplying yarns to the knitting needles A and b, when the knitting needle C passes once and then reverses in the direction of the knitting needle A, a new twist is formed in the knitting needle C. After reversing and feeding the knitting needles d, E, f, G, and h to form hooks and stitches, once passing through the knitting needle I, reversing again and moving toward the knitting needle A, a new one is added to the knitting needle I. Form a twisted eye. Thereafter, the yarn feeding direction is changed to form hooks and stitches on the knitting needles j, K, and l.

  In S1, the yarn feeding direction is changed, and yarns are fed to the knitting needles l, j, h, f, d, and b of the front needle bed FB to form new stitches. This is flat bag knitting, which is the end of the set-up part 3 after forming the tomes. Also in this case, a twist is formed on the knitting needles l and f. After the knitting of S0, the knitting needle l is temporarily passed through and moved to the knitting needle k side, and when it is reversed and passed through the knitting needle l, a new twist is formed in the knitting needle l. After reversing and feeding the knitting needles j and h to form the stitches, when the knitting needle f passes once and then reverses and passes through the knitting needle f, a new twist is formed on the knitting needle f. Thereafter, the yarn feeding direction is changed to form stitches on the knitting needles d and b.

  S2 indicates the movement of the stitches as a start for arranging the stitches on the rib portion 4. The stitches locked to the knitting needles A, E, G, and K of the rear needle bed BB are transferred to the knitting needles a, e, g, and k of the front needle bed FB, respectively. Finally, the knitting needles a, e, f, g, k, l of the front needle bed and the knitting needles B, C, D, H, I of the rear needle bed BB are formed so that the 3 × 3 rib structure shown in FIG. The array of J is replaced from the stitch of the 1 × 1 rib structure indicated by S1.

  In S3, the stitches of the knitting needles A and G that have been transferred in S2 are transferred back to the knitting needles B and H. In S4, the stitches of the knitting needles E and K that have been transferred in S2 are transferred back to the knitting needles D and J. In this state, the stitches that are locked to the knitting needles A, C, and E that are lined up at every other stitch in the stage of S1 are formed on the rear needle bed in a state where the stitches that are locked to the knitting needles B, C, and D are aligned. ing.

  In S5, the stitches locked to the knitting needles d and j of the front needle bed FB are transferred to the knitting needles E and K of the rear needle bed BB, respectively. In S6, the stitches engaged with the knitting needles b and h of the front needle bed FB are transferred to the knitting needles A and G of the rear needle bed BB, respectively. In S7, the stitches of the knitting needles d, j, b, and h transferred in S5 and S6 are transferred back to the knitting needles e, k, a, and g, respectively. In this state, the stitches that are locked to the knitting needles d, f, and h arranged at every other stitch in the stage of S1 are formed on the front needle bed in a state where the stitches that are locked to the knitting needles e, f, and g are aligned. ing. After forming the set-up portion 3, if the rib portions 4 are knitted in the same arrangement, the 3 × 3 rib structure as the hem rib is completed.

  By the steps S2 to S7, the stitches of the 1 × 1 rib structure are changed to form a 3 × 3 rib structure. Here, the knitting needles 1 and f and the stitches locked to the knitting needles C and I formed with twisted threads that shorten the knitting yarn are not transferred, and knitting becomes easy. Furthermore, in order to form a twisted stitch, an empty course is added, but by forming a twisted stitch not only on all stitches but only on the middle stitch where the force stretched on both sides works strongly. High effect can be obtained by adding fewer empty courses. This is because the crossover yarn that has been extended to both sides and extended for a long time is restored.

  In this embodiment, the state is rearranged from the 1 × 1 rib state to the 3 × 3 rib structure state without changing the relationship between the front and back needle beds. Also, for other rib patterns such as other 3 × 1 ribs, 2 × 2 ribs, and 4 × 2 ribs, the stitches are changed from the state of the 1 × 1 ribs to the arrangement of the rib patterns in the same manner as in the steps S2 to S7 of this embodiment. If twists are formed with respect to the stitches that do not move, the appearance of the crossover yarns at the set-up portion can be suppressed and the appearance can be improved.

  Further, in the present invention, not only the front body 1 but also a tubular knitted fabric can be applied. Furthermore, although flat bag knitting is performed only on S2 at the front needle bed, it may be similarly performed on the rear needle bed. In that case, the twisted stitches formed by the knitting needles C and I performed at S0 as the starting end of the set-up portion 3 may not be formed, and may be formed when performing flat bag knitting on the rear needle bed.
