Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for knitting a fabric, capable of knitting a fabric which hardly forms a hole near a portion where an increased stitch is formed, and to provide a knitted fabric having a portion knitted by the method for knitting a fabric.SOLUTION: The method for knitting a fabric includes the following steps α and β when a side where the first stitch of a new stitch row is formed in the knitting width direction of a fabric is defined as a starting end side LS, and a side opposite thereto is defined as a formation side RS. In the step α, an increased stitch 31 forming a new stitch row is formed on an empty needle located closer to the formation side RS than a target stitch 11 which is one of stitches forming an existing stitch row. In the step β, after the step α, a new stitch 16 forming the new stitch row is formed following the target stitch 11 in the wale direction. After the step β, when a next stitch (increased stitch 32) forming the new stitch row is formed, a knitting yarn extending from the new stitch 16 to a yarn feeder is allowed to pass through the same side as the side where the new stitch 16 is pulled out, and then the increased stitch 32 is formed.

Description

  The present invention relates to a knitting method of a knitted fabric for knitting a new stitch row including an additional stitch in the wale direction following an existing stitch row locked to a needle bed using a flat knitting machine, and a method thereof. The present invention relates to a knitted fabric having portions knitted by application.

  In the middle of knitting the knitted fabric with the flat knitting machine, an additional stitch may be formed in order to increase the number of stitches arranged in the knitting width direction. As a method for forming such an increase stitch, an increase stitch consisting of a hook is formed on the empty needle in the knitting region of the existing stitch row that is locked to the needle bed, and the number of stitches is increased by this increase stitch. A knitting method of a knitted fabric is known. However, in this knitting method, since the increased stitch is formed on the empty needle in which the stitch of the previous course does not exist, a large hole tends to be generated at the increased stitch formation portion. As one means for solving the problem, it has been proposed to form an increase by increasing the percentage (for example, see Patent Document 1).

Japanese Patent No. 2604653

  However, even when the split increase is used, for example, when performing a needle knitting in which a blank needle is provided between stitches adjacent in the knitting width direction, or when using a knitting yarn thinner than usual, the additional stitch Holes may be generated at the formation site.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and one of the purposes thereof is a knitting method of a knitted fabric capable of knitting a knitted fabric in which a hole is unlikely to be vacant in the vicinity of the formation site of the increased stitches, and the knitted fabric. It is providing the knitted fabric which has the location knitted by the knitting method.

The knitting method of the knitted fabric of the present invention comprises at least a pair of front and back needle beds and a yarn feeder for supplying knitting yarn to these needle beds, and a flat knitting machine capable of transferring stitches between the front and back needle beds Is a knitting method of a knitted fabric for knitting a new stitch row including additional stitches in the wale direction following the existing stitch row locked to the needle bed. In the knitting method of the knitted fabric of the present invention, when the side where the first stitch of the new stitch row is formed in the knitting width direction of the knitted fabric is the start end side and the opposite side is the forming side, the next step α and step β.
[Step α]... Additional stitches forming the new stitch row are formed on the empty needle on the forming side with respect to the target stitch that is one of the stitches constituting the existing stitch row.
[Step β]... After the step α, following the target stitch, new stitches forming the new stitch row are formed in the wale direction.
Further, in the knitting method of the knitted fabric of the present invention, when the next stitch constituting the new stitch row is formed after the step β, the knitting yarn extending from the new stitch to the yarn feeder is used as the new stitch row. The next stitch is formed after traversing the same side as the side pulled out from the target stitch.

  Here, the state of the knitting yarn extending from the new stitch to the yarn feeder will be described with reference to a loop diagram of FIG. 3 to be described later. The new stitch 16 formed after the target stitch 11 is a sheet surface with respect to the target stitch 11. Since it is pulled out from the near side to the far side, the knitting yarn extending from the new stitch 16 crosses the back side of the new stitch 16 on the paper surface.

  The new stitch and the additional stitch in the knitting method of the knitted fabric of the present invention may be formed when the yarn feeder is moved to the forming side, or may be formed when the yarn feeder is moved to the starting end side. The new stitch formed following the target stitch may be a front stitch or a back stitch. Here, the front (back) is a stitch that becomes the front (back) when the knitted fabric is viewed from the front side. For example, when the new stitch becomes a front stitch when the knitted fabric is viewed from the front side, the new stitch is drawn from the back side of the knitted fabric toward the front side.

  In the knitting method of the knitted fabric of the present invention, the knitting with the steps α and β as a set may be performed only once when forming a new stitch row, may be intermittently performed a plurality of times, or continuously. It may be performed several times. When the processes α and β are continuously performed a plurality of times, the stitch knitted next to the new stitch formed in the (n-1) th process β is an additional stitch formed in the nth process α (n is 2). More natural numbers). On the other hand, when the steps α and β are performed once or intermittently a plurality of times, the stitch knitted next to the step β is not an additional stitch but a stitch continuous in the wale direction of the existing stitch row.

  As one form of the knitting method of the knitted fabric of the present invention, the flat knitting machine used is a two-bed flat knitting machine having a pair of front and back needle beds, and the existing stitch row is knitted by needle knitting. It can be in the form.

  As one form of the knitting method of the knitted fabric of the present invention, when performing the knitting with the steps α and β as a set n times continuously, when performing the n (n ≧ 2) step α, the n−1th time. The knitting yarn extending from the new stitch formed to the yarn feeder is the same as the side from which the (n-1) th new stitch is pulled out from the (n-1) th target stitch among the front and back sides of the target stitch in the n-th step α. It is preferable to perform the n-th step α after traversing to the side. For example, with reference to the knitting process diagram of FIG. 2 to be described later, as shown in S2, the first (n−1; n = 2) new stitch 16 is knitted on the rear needle bed (BB). The new stitch 16 is pulled out from the front needle bed (FB) side of the target stitch 11 (see S1) to the BB side. In that case, after the knitting yarn extending from the new stitch 16 to the yarn feeder is crossed to the BB side as shown in S3, the second (n−1; n = 3) additional stitches 32 are formed as shown in S4. Form.

  As one form of the knitting method of the knitted fabric of the present invention, when the new stitch is formed in the wale direction of the target stitch, and the needle bed on which the new stitch is the back stitch is a back stitch bed, the new stitch is Knitting is performed when the yarn feeder is moved to the start end side at the back needle bed, and the additional stitch is knitted when the yarn feeder is moved to the start end side at the back needle bed or the needle bed opposite thereto. Is preferred.

  On the other hand, the knitted fabric of the present invention comprises an existing stitch row and a new stitch row which is a stitch row including additional stitches and follows the wale direction of the existing stitch row, and has at least a pair of front and back needle beds, The knitted fabric is knitted using a flat knitting machine capable of transferring stitches between the needle beds. In the knitted fabric of the present invention, in the knitting width direction of the knitted fabric, the side where the first stitch of the new stitch row is formed is the starting end side, and the opposite side is the forming side. The first stitch constituting the new stitch row is located on the start end side with respect to the additional stitch, is the stitch formed next to the first stitch, and is the second stitch constituting the new stitch row. The stitch is closer to the forming side than the additional stitch. The knitting yarn connected from the first stitch to the second stitch is characterized in that the first stitch intersects the first stitch on the same side as the side pulled out from the stitch of the existing stitch row. .

  According to the knitting method of the knitted fabric of the present invention, the increased stitch, the first stitch formed after the increased stitch (the new stitch in the knitting method of the knitted fabric of the present invention), and the first stitch formed after the first stitch. The knitted fabric of the present invention including the second stitch can be knitted. The knitted fabric of the present invention will be described with reference to the loop diagram of FIG. 3 to be described later. The stitches in the existing stitch row (target stitches 11 and 12 in FIG. 3) are followed by the first stitch (new stitch 16 in FIG. 3). The side where the second stitch (the additional stitch 32 in FIG. 3) is formed and the first stitch 16 is pulled out from the target stitch 11 is connected to the first stitch 16 and the second stitch 32 (the back side in FIG. 3). ) On the same side as the first stitch 16. When the stitches are arranged in such an arrangement relationship, the knitting yarn connecting the first stitch 16 and the second stitch 32 becomes the target stitch 11 (the first stitch 16 is continuously formed in the wale direction). The stitch is wound around the stitch). Thus, the knitting yarn wound around the target stitch 11 restrains the stretch in the knitting width direction of the knitted fabric in the vicinity of the additional stitch (the increased stitch 31 in FIG. 3) when the knitted fabric is pulled in the knitting width direction. As a result, the knitted fabric of the present invention is a knitted fabric that is less likely to have a hole in the vicinity of the portion where the increased stitch is formed, and has a good appearance at the location.

It is a knitting process figure which concerns on the knitting method of the knitted fabric described in embodiment. FIG. 3 is a loop diagram in the vicinity of an increased stitch of a knitted fabric knitted according to the knitting process diagram of FIG. 2.

  Hereinafter, an example of knitting a cardigan with a pocket (knitted fabric) by needle knitting using every other knitting needle by applying the knitting method of the knitted fabric of the present invention will be described based on FIGS. The flat knitting machine used in this embodiment has a pair of front and back needle beds that extend in the left-right direction and face each other in the front-rear direction, the rear needle bed can be racked left and right, and the stitches between the front and back needle beds are It is a two-bed flat knitting machine that can be transferred. This flat knitting machine has a plurality of cam systems in its carriage, and can perform a plurality of knitting operations by one movement of the carriage. Of course, the flat knitting machine used for knitting may be a four-bed flat knitting machine.

  In the cardigan 10 of the present embodiment shown in FIG. 1 (A), the pocket knitted fabric portion 2F is sewn on the surface of the front knitted fabric portion 1F out of the cylindrical body 1 composed of the front knitted fabric portion 1F and the back knitted fabric portion 1B. It is joined with. The pocket knitted fabric portion 2F is knitted from a branch portion 3 formed within the knitted width of the front knitted fabric portion 1F, as shown in the BB cross-sectional view of FIG. Hereinafter, the knitting procedure for forming the branch part 3 in the front knitted fabric part 1F will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 2 is a knitting process diagram for forming the branch portion 3 in the front knitted fabric portion 1F. “S + number” described in the left column of FIG. 2 indicates the number of the knitting step, the horizontal arrow described in the right column indicates the movement direction of the yarn feeder, and the vertical arrow indicates the transfer direction. (The arrow with “K” indicates that knitting is performed as the yarn feeder moves). The knitting operation in the right column is performed first on the left side of the page. Further, ○ in the middle column showing the actual knitting state is a stitch locked to the needle bed, ● is a stitch knitted in each knitting process, V is a hook, ▼ is a yarn feeder, Operations performed in the knitting process are indicated by bold lines. Further, in FIG. 2, the right side of the paper surface along the knitting width direction is referred to as “formation side RS”, and the left side of the paper surface is referred to as “start side LS”. In FIG. 2, for convenience of explanation, the number of stitches is made smaller than actual, and the majority of the front knitted fabric portion 1F and the back knitted fabric portion 1B are not shown.

  S0 in FIG. 2 shows a state in which the stitches of the front knitted fabric portion (existing stitch row) 1F are locked to the knitting needles A, C, E, G, and I of the front needle bed (hereinafter referred to as FB). From this state of S0, the branching part 3 consisting of the stitches is formed on the knitting needles B, D, F, H of the FB.

  In S1, the yarn feeder is first moved to a position on the forming side RS from the target stitch 11 which is one of the stitches constituting the front knitted fabric portion 1F, and then the target stitch 11 is changed from the knitting needle A of the FB to the knitting needle A of the BB. Transfer.

  In S2, the yarn feeder is moved to the start side LS to form a stitch (increase) 31 on the knitting needle B of the FB (step (n-1; n = 2) step α), and then to the knitting needle A of the BB. A new stitch 16 following the target stitch 11 to be locked is formed (step β of the first (n−1; n = 2)). The new stitch 16 becomes a back stitch when the knitted fabric is viewed from the front side.

  In S3, after the new stitch 16 formed in S2 is transferred to the knitting needle A of BB, the yarn feeder is moved to a position on the forming side RS with respect to the target stitch 12 constituting the front knitted fabric portion 1F. By doing so, the knitting yarn extending from the new stitch 16 to the yarn feeder can be crossed on the same side as the side from which the new stitch 16 is drawn (that is, the back side of the cardigan 10 in FIG. 1).

  Furthermore, in S3, after the yarn feeder is moved, the target stitch 12 locked to the knitting needle C of the FB is transferred to the knitting needle C of the BB. By doing so, the knitting yarn extending from the new stitch 16 to the yarn feeder is the side on the front side (here FB side) and the back side (here BB side) of the target stitch 12 where the new stitch 16 is pulled out from the target stitch 11. 1 (that is, the BB side and the back side of the cardigan 10 in FIG. 1).

  In S3, the yarn feeder may be moved after the target stitch 12 is transferred. In that case, the knitting yarn extending from the new stitch 16 to the yarn feeder is on the front side of the target stitch 12 (that is, on the FB side, opposite to the side from which the new stitch 16 is pulled out, on the surface side of the cardigan 10). Will cross. Further, the transfer of the new stitch 16 from the BB to the FB may be performed after the formation of the branch portion 3 is completed.

  In S4, the yarn feeder is moved to the starting end side LS, and an additional stitch 32 consisting of hooks is formed on the empty needle of the knitting needle D of the FB (the second (n−1; n = 3) step α), and then the BB A new stitch 17 following the target stitch 12 of the knitting needle C is formed (step β of the second (n−1; n = 3)).

  In S5, the stitches are transferred and the yarn feeder is moved in the same procedure as in S3. That is, after transferring the new stitch 17 from BB to FB, the yarn feeder is moved to the forming side RS to the position beyond the target stitch 13, and finally the target stitch 13 is transferred from FB to BB.

  After S5, the same knitting as the knitting described in S4 and S5 is repeated. In this way, by performing the knitting with the processes α and β as a set a plurality of times, as shown in S6, the branch portion 3 composed of an additional stitch is formed between the stitches of the front knitted fabric portion 1F. The If the stitches that follow the wale direction of the branch portion 3 constituted by the stitches of the FB knitting needles B, D, F, and H are formed from the state of S6, the pocket knitted fabric is formed on the front knitted fabric portion 1F as shown in FIG. Part 2F can be knitted.

  FIG. 3 shows a loop diagram in the vicinity of the branching section 3 knitted according to the knitting process diagram of FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, a new stitch row including additional stitches 31 and 32 is formed following the wale direction of the existing stitch row including the target stitches 11 to 13. The new stitch (first stitch) 16 formed next to the additional stitch 31 is on the start side LS from the additional stitch 31, and the additional stitch (second stitch) 32 formed next to the new stitch 16 is increased. It is on the forming side RS from the eye 31. Further, the knitting yarn connected from the new stitch 16 to the additional stitch 32 is wound around the target stitch 11, and restrains the elongation in the knitting width direction of the new stitch 16, the additional stitch 31, the new stitch 17, and the additional stitch 32. For this reason, even if the cardigan 10 (see FIG. 1) is pulled in the knitting width direction, the distance between the target stitches 11 and 12 is difficult to expand, and the hole in that portion is very inconspicuous.

  In the loop diagram of FIG. 3, the knitting yarn connected from the new stitch 16 to the additional stitch 32 intersects the back side of the new stitch 16, the additional stitch 31 and the new stitch 17 (the back side of the cardigan 10). Therefore, the knitting yarn is difficult to see from the surface side of the cardigan 10 and the appearance near the branch portion 3 is good.

  In addition, this invention is not necessarily limited to embodiment mentioned above, In the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention, it can change suitably and can implement. For example, the body 1 and the pocket knitted fabric portion 2F may be structured such as a rib structure. In addition, the body 1 and the pocket knitted fabric portion 2F may be knitted by needle knitting using two knitting needles.
