In the present embodiment, the knitting of the double tubular knitted fabric 1 in which the inner surface 15 of the inner cylinder part and the outer surface 18 of the outer cylinder part are both formed in a face pattern will be described with reference to FIG. The numbers on the left in the figure are the number of knitting steps, and the letters F and B indicate the front needle bed and the back needle bed, respectively. The square marks are stitches of the inner cylinder portion 7, and the circle marks are stitches of the outer cylinder portion 8. Regarding the stitches, the white circles and squares indicate that the needles are locked to the knitting needles on the needle bed, the black circles and squares indicate the newly formed stitches, and the arrows are transferred between the front and back needle beds. Shows you to do. Further, the white triangle mark and the black triangle mark respectively indicate a yarn feeder 9 (first yarn feeder) for supplying the knitting yarn 11 (first knitting yarn) to the inner cylinder portion 7 and a knitting yarn 12 (second knitting yarn) for the outer cylinder portion 8. A yarn feeder 10 (second yarn feeder) for supplying yarn) is shown. The yarn feeder 10 is supported by the yarn path rail on the front side of the yarn feeder 9.

  3 (a) to 3 (d) and FIGS. 4 (e) to (f) show that the knitting yarn 11 used for knitting the inner cylindrical portion 7 and the knitting yarn 12 used for knitting the outer cylindrical portion 8 are shown. It is the schematic shown in steps about a mode of crossing. In order to facilitate understanding, the needle bed is not shown, and the inner cylindrical portion 7 and the outer cylindrical portion 8 are shown to form a double cylindrical knitted fabric in three dimensions. Similarly, the illustration of the transfer process relating to the knitting of the inner cylindrical portion 7 is also omitted.

  Hereinafter, the knitting process of the double tubular knitted fabric according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 2, 3 and 4. In the knitting step before step 0 (not shown), the inner cylinder portion 7 is knitted to the one end portion 13 using the knitting yarn 11 supplied from the yarn feeder 9. In step 0, the inner cylindrical portion 7 and the outer cylindrical portion 8 constituting the double tubular knitted fabric 1 are provided on the knitting needles of the front and rear needle beds so that transfer needles are provided on the opposite needle beds, respectively. It is locked (corresponding to FIG. 3 (a)). Both the yarn feeder 9 and the yarn feeder 10 are located on the right side of the drawing with respect to the one end portion 13 of the double tubular knitted fabric 1, and the knitting yarn 11 and the knitting yarn 12 supplied from each yarn feeder are on the one end portion 13 side. And are locked to different knitting needles on the rear needle bed. In each of the inner cylinder portion 7 and the outer cylinder portion 8 in the process 0, the knitted fabric locked by the knitting needle of the front needle bed is the front knitted fabric, and the knitted fabric locked by the knitting needle of the rear needle bed is the rear side. Knitted fabric.

  In step 1, the stitches of the front side knitted fabric of the inner cylindrical portion 7 locked by the knitting needles of the front needle bed are transferred to the knitting needles of the rear needle bed, and then in step 2, the knitting needles of the front needle bed are transferred from the yarn feeder 10. The knitting yarn 12 is supplied to knit the front knitted fabric of the outer cylindrical portion 8 (corresponding to FIG. 3B).

  Similarly, in Step 3 and Step 4, after the stitch rows of the front knitted fabric and the rear knitted fabric of the inner cylindrical portion 7 are transferred to the knitting needles of the front needle bed, the knitting yarn 12 is transferred from the yarn feeder 10 to the knitting needles of the rear needle bed. To knitting the rear knitted fabric of the outer cylindrical portion 8 (corresponding to FIG. 3C). Here, paying attention to FIG. 3 (c), the upper part of the knitting yarn 11 extending from the yarn feeder 9 waiting on the one end portion 13 side to the end portion of the rear knitted fabric of the inner cylinder portion 7 is placed on the rear needle bed. A knitting yarn 12 extending from an end portion of a rear knitted fabric of an outer cylinder portion 8 to the yarn feeder 10 intersects.

  In step 5, a front stitch is formed on the inner surface 15 of the inner cylindrical portion 7, so that the stitch rows of the front knitted fabric and the rear knitted fabric of the inner cylindrical portion 7 are transferred to the rear needle bed. The knitting yarn 11 is supplied from 9 to the knitting needles on the rear needle bed, and the front knitted fabric of the inner cylindrical portion 7 is knitted (corresponding to FIG. 3D). Similarly, in Step 7 and Step 8, the rear knitted fabric of the inner cylindrical portion 7 is knitted with the knitting needles of the front needle bed. Here, paying attention to FIG. 3 (d), the knitting yarn 11 in the state of FIG. 3 (c) is supplied to the knitting needles for knitting the front side knitted fabric of the inner cylinder part 7, but the inner cylinder part When the yarn feeder 9 is folded back for knitting from the rear knitted fabric 7 to the front knitted fabric, the knitting yarn 12 extending from the final stitch of the outer cylindrical portion 8 to the yarn feeder 10 is included inside the inner cylindrical portion 7. Thus, the entangled portion 6 is formed.

  As a result of the above-described knitting from Step 1 to Step 8, the inner cylinder portion 7 and the outer cylinder portion 8 are each formed with a one-course stitch row that circulates and corresponds to Step 0 (corresponding to FIG. 4 (e)). . In addition, the entanglement part 6 is formed only in the one end part 13 side of a double cylindrical knitted fabric, and is not formed in the other end part 14 side.

  Next, in Step 9 to Step 14, the order of knitting each knitted fabric is changed from the knitting of Step 1 to Step 8, and the entangled portion 6 is formed on the other end portion 14 of the double tubular knitted fabric 1. Organize.

  After knitting the front knitted fabric of the outer cylindrical portion 8 in the same manner as in the above-described step 1 and step 2 in step 9 and step 10, in the subsequent step 11, the front knitted fabric of the inner cylindrical portion 7 is made the same as in step 6 above. Are knitted (corresponding to FIG. 4F). It should be noted that the knitting of the front knitted fabric of the outer cylindrical portion 8 and the knitting of the front knitted fabric of the inner cylindrical portion 7 are in the state shown in FIG.

  After transferring the stitch row of the inner cylinder portion 7 to the knitting needles of the front needle bed in Step 12, in Step 13, the rear knitted fabric of the outer cylinder portion 8 is knitted in the same manner as in Step 4 (FIG. 4 (g )). When attention is paid to FIG. 4 (g), the upper needle knitting yarn 11 from the yarn feeder 9 waiting on the other end portion 14 side to the end portion of the front side knitted fabric of the inner cylinder portion 7 is folded by knitting to the front needle. The knitting yarns 12 of the outer cylindrical portion 8 extending from the floor to the back needle bed intersect.

  When the rear knitted fabric of the inner cylinder part 7 is knitted using the knitting yarn 11 in step 14, the entangled part 6 is formed so that the knitting yarn 12 is included inside the inner cylinder part 7 (FIG. 4 ( corresponding to h)).

  As described above, the entangled portions 6 can be alternately formed on the one end portion 13 and the other end portion 14 of the double tubular knitted fabric 1 by repeating the steps 1 to 14 shown in the present embodiment. The knitting from step 1 to step 8 and the knitting from step 9 to step 14 may be repeated in a desired combination without being repeated alternately. In the present embodiment, the double tubular knitted fabric 1 has both the inner surface 15 of the inner tubular portion 7 and the outer surface 18 of the outer tubular portion 8 formed as a face, so that the reversible knitted fabric has color and design characteristics. You can always enjoy different textures of the front and back with the front organization.

  In this embodiment, when the entangled portion 6 is formed by the one end portion 13, the inner cylindrical portion 7 is knitted from the state of FIG. 3C to the other end portion 14 as shown in FIG. 3D. In the case where the outer cylinder 8 is knitted to the other end 14 in advance from the state 3 (c), the knitting yarn 12 over the front and back needle beds is above the knitting yarn 11 over the inner cylinder 7 to the yarn feeder 9. The interlaced portion 6 can be formed at the one end portion 13 as in the present embodiment.

  In the present embodiment, the inner cylinder portion 7 and the outer cylinder portion 8 are knitted in the same direction. However, the crossing relationship between the knitting yarn 11 and the knitting yarn 12 described above is a knitting yarn that passes from the yarn feeder 9. 11 does not change even if it is locked to the knitting needles on either the front or back needle bed. Therefore, contrary to the present embodiment in which the two tubular portions are knitted in the same direction, the entangled portions 6 can be formed at both ends of the double tubular knitted fabric 1 even when the knitted in the different directions. .

  Similarly, in the present embodiment, the yarn feeder 9 was positioned on the front side in the front-rear direction of the yarn feeder 10, but each process diagram in FIG. 2 was rotated 180 degrees even in the case of a reverse positional relationship. This is the same as the case where the needle stand is in a state, and the entangled portions 6 can be formed at both ends of the double tubular knitted fabric 1 as in the above-described embodiment.

  In the above-described embodiment, the inner surface 15 of the inner knitted fabric 7 and the outer surface 18 of the outer cylindrical portion 8 are both faced. However, the inner surface 15 of the inner knitted fabric 7 and the outer surface 18 of the outer cylindrical portion 8 are different. You may form with a back stitch. Further, the inner surface 15 of the inner knitted fabric 7 may be formed with the front surface, and the outer surface 18 of the outer cylindrical portion 8 may be formed with the back surface, or may be knitted so as to be reversed. Furthermore, it goes without saying that the present invention can be carried out as long as it does not depart from the gist of the present invention, such as knitting so that the front and back are switched for each course that circulates or combining with a known organization pattern.

  Further, although the flat knitting machine has two needle beds facing each other in the front and rear directions, it can be knitted by a four-bed flat knitting machine having other two needle beds for transfer. In this case, it is not necessary to provide empty needles on the two needle beds used for knitting the knitted fabric, and the texture can be made clogged.
