Sock and a method for its manufacture

A method of knitting a borderline between two adjacent regions in a knitted garment, the method comprising:

• on a circular knitting machine having a series of consecutive needles grouped into a first sub-area of needles, a second sub-area of needles, and at least two separating needles positioned between the first sub-area of needles and the second sub-area of needles:
• forming a first course of knitted stitches by feeding a first yarn from a first finger and moving the circular knitting machine in a first direction while knitting at consecutive needles in the first sub-area of needles, executing a miss at a first separating needle directly adjacent to the first sub-area of needles, knitting at a second separating needle directly adjacent the second sub-area of needles, and not knitting at consecutive needles in the second sub-area of needles;
• moving the circular knitting machine in a second direction that is opposite to the first direction while the series of consecutive needles are in a miss position and while positioning a second finger to feed a second yarn;
• forming a second course of knitted stitches with the second yarn by moving the circular knitting machine in the first direction and by knitting at the second separating needle and at the consecutive needles in the second sub-area of needles, wherein forming the second course of knitted stitches includes not knitting at the consecutive needles in the first sub-area of needles and not knitting at the first separating needle;
• forming a third course of knitted stitches with the second yarn by moving the circular knitting machine in the second direction and by knitting at the consecutive needles in the second sub-area of needles and at the first separating needle, wherein forming the third course of knitted stitches includes not knitting at the consecutive needles in the first sub-area of needles and not knitting at the second separating needle;
• moving the circular knitting machine in the first direction while the series of consecutive needles are in a miss position and while positioning the first finger to feed the first yarn;
• forming a fourth course of knitted stitches with the first yarn by moving the circular knitting machine in the second direction and by knitting at the consecutive needles in the first sub-area of needles and at the first separating needle, wherein forming the fourth course of knitted stitches includes not knitting at the consecutive needles in the second sub-area of needles and not knitting at the second separating needle;
• and
• repeating the forming of the first, second, third, and fourth courses at subsequent courses.
