A method of manufacturing an upper for an article of footwear, the upper including a knitted component formed of a single, one-piece knit construction that includes a plurality of strands, the method comprising:

• manipulating a first strand of the plurality of strands to at least partially form a first area of the knitted component, wherein the first strand is positioned on an inner surface of the knitted component, wherein the first area is formed at a collar portion of the knitted component, wherein the collar portion includes a rim that defines a collar opening of the upper;
• breaking the first strand to form a hook in the first area;
• knitting a second area of the knitted component such that the plurality of strands at least partially form the second area at the collar portion of the knitted component, wherein the second area is at least partially formed by manipulating a second strand of the plurality of strands to form a loop within the second area, wherein the second strand is positioned on an outer surface of the knitted component;
• and
• incorporating the upper in a footwear article,
• wherein the first area is configured to move relative to the second area between an unsecured position and a secured position, the hook spaced away from the second area in the unsecured position, the hook secured to the second area and the loop configured to attach to the hook in the secured position.
