Description

The present invention relates to a sock with a finger bag and a method for knitting the same. The sock with a finger bag according to the present invention may have five finger bags at the toe of the sock, or three fingers of a thumb bag, a second to fourth finger bag, and a fifth finger bag. The one provided with a bag, the one provided with a finger bag for a thumb and another finger bag like a tabi, or the like may be used.
The socks according to the present invention include not only socks, but also foot covers (sometimes called cover socks, inner socks, nude socks, etc.) and short toe covers from fingertips to arches. It is a thing.

  A common sock's toe consists of a single finger pouch accommodating five fingers together, but recently, the fingers are in close contact with adjacent fingers and become stuffy and smell. Socks, which cause athlete's foot or cause athlete's foot, have been developed and put on sale in many different socks.

  For example, Japanese Patent No. 3004200 (Patent Document 1), Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-239950 (Patent Document 2), Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-61054 (Patent Document 3), and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2008-115475 (Patent Document 4) ) Discloses a method for knitting five-fingered socks.

Japanese Patent No. 3004200 JP 2000-239950 A JP-A-2002-61054 JP 2008-115475 A

In the knitting methods disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3 described above, each finger bag from the thumb bag to the fifth finger bag is in a state where the base portion is adjacent to the base portion of the adjacent finger bag, or The crotch is formed in a state where the base portions overlap.
On the other hand, in a human foot, the portion of the thumb near the first joint is thick, and the base of the thumb is thinner. Therefore, the second finger (the index finger) adjacent to the thumb contacts near the first joint of the thumb, and the crotch between the base of the thumb and the base of the second finger is wide and a gap is formed. .

Conventional five-fingered socks as disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3 have no room for the crotch between the thumb and the second finger, and have a cramped feeling when worn. It was hard to move freely.
Patent Literature 4 discloses that a gore is formed with a bind-off between the thumb and forefinger. However, the knitting process is extremely complicated for a gore with a bind-off stitch (as described in claim 7 of Patent Document 4, a stitch at one end of an adjacent tubular knitted fabric is retracted to the other needle bed and emptied. The stitch at the other end of the adjacent tubular knitted fabric is transferred to the knitting needle, the stitches evacuated to the transferred stitch are overlapped to form a stitch, and the stitch is formed by binding off the knitted stitch.) However, there is a problem that knitting of the gossip takes a long time. Furthermore, the gore with the stitches has a double stitch and the stitches become thicker due to the stitches themselves.When the socks are worn, the gore parts do not fit the finger crotch, there is a feeling of gorotsuki, and it is not comfortable Was. In addition, since the stitch loop of the bind-off is in the horizontal direction, there is a problem that it is difficult to extend in the direction in which the toes are opened.

  The present invention solves the above-described conventional problems, and provides a gore between the thumb pouch and the second finger, and freely moves the thumb and the second finger when wearing socks, respectively. An object of the present invention is to provide a sock with a gore that is easy to wear and that has a gore portion that fits on a finger crotch and has a good wearing feeling.

  Another object of the present invention is to provide a knitting method capable of easily manufacturing such a sock with a gore.

  According to the present invention, in a flat knitting machine having a needle bed arranged opposite to front and rear, knitting is performed in a tubular shape from the toe side of the thumb pocket, and after knitting to the base of the thumb pocket. The knitting yarn is supplied in a zigzag manner to a plurality of knitting needles before and after the knitting needle that was knitting the thumb bag, and the knitting yarn is formed as a set-up portion for gore knitting, and thereafter the adjacent finger bag is knitted. The above object is achieved by a knitting method of socks with a gore.

In the present invention, the knitting yarn is fed in a zigzag manner to a plurality of front and rear knitting needles adjacent to the knitting needle which has been knitting the thumb flap after knitting to the base of the thumb flap, and a set-up portion for gore knitting. After that, it is preferable that at least one reciprocating carriage is run by the knitting needle for gore knitting and the knitting needle for thumb finger knitting to knit a stitch, and thereafter knitting of an adjacent finger sack is performed.
Further, the width of the gore knitted by the knitting needles for gore knitting is preferably 2 to 10 mm.

In the present invention, after performing the knitting of the second finger bag and the third finger bag, knit a tubular three-body knitted fabric at the base of each finger bag including the gore portion, and then After knitting of another finger bag, or after knitting of the second finger bag, the third finger bag and the fourth finger bag, each finger bag including the gore portion is knitted. It is also possible to knit a tubular four-body knitted fabric at the base, and then knit a fifth finger pocket.
In this case, it is preferable to reduce the width of the gore portion during knitting of three or four bodies and reduce the width by eyes.

In the sock having a plurality of finger bags of the present invention, a gore is provided on a finger crotch between a finger bag for a thumb and an adjacent finger bag, and the gore is supplied in a zigzag manner to knitting needles of front and rear needle beds. Since it is knitted from the knitted yarn, the gore portion has no thickness and fits the toe, and the thumb finger bag and the adjacent finger bag fit the toes, so that the socks are comfortable to wear.
Further, according to the present invention, since the gore is knitted from the knitting yarn supplied in a zigzag manner, the gore is easily expanded in the lateral direction, and the toes can be easily spread or moved.

According to the present invention, knitting is performed in a tubular shape from the toe side of the thumb pocket, and after knitting up to the base of the thumb pocket, a plurality of knitting needles before and after adjacent to the knitting needle that knits the thumb pocket. The knitting yarn is fed to the knitting needles in a zigzag manner to form a set-up portion for gore knitting, and thereafter the adjacent finger pockets are knitted. Therefore, as in the knitting method of Patent Document 4, the stitches are transferred or the bind-off is formed. No complicated and complicated steps are required, and the knitting can be performed efficiently.
Also, if the stitches increased for knitting of the gore (that is, the widened width) are reduced by the knitting of the fifth finger pocket and reduced by the stitches, then the stitches become the normal size.
