Abstract
A weft-knitted fabric and a knitting method thereof. The weft-knitted fabric is produced by knitting with a circular knitting machine. The weft-knitted fabric is formed by knitting a face yarn and a ground yarn. The weft-knitted fabric includes at least one first area and at least one second area, the at least one first area and the at least one second area respectively comprise at least one course. In the first area, the face yarn and the ground yarn are all looped, and relative positions of the face yarn and the ground yarn are not fixed in the same course. In the second area, the ground yarn is all looped, and the face yarn cooperates with the ground yarn by one of following: looping and welting.
Claims9
A weft-knitted fabric, produced by a circular knitting machine and formed by knitting a face yarn and a ground yarn, comprising:
- at least one first area and at least one second area, wherein the at least one first area and the at least one second area respectively comprise at least one course, in the first area, the face yarn and the ground yarn are all looped, relative positions of the face yarn and the ground yarn are not fixed in the same course, and in the second area, the ground yarn is all looped, and the face yarn cooperates with the ground yarn by one of following:
- looping and welting.
A knitting method of a weft-knitted fabric, implemented with a circular knitting machine, the circular knitting machine using a face yarn and a ground yarn to knit, comprising:
- controlling the circular knitting machine to selectively feed the face yarn and the ground yarn in one of following during knitting in a same course:
- normal yarn feeding and reverse yarn feeding, so that relative positions of the face yarn and the ground yarn being not fixed in the same course after being knitted into loops;
- and
- controlling the circular knitting machine to select needles in knitting of the same course so that the ground yarn being all looped, and the face yarn cooperating with the ground yarn by one of following:
- knitted into loops and welted by missing needle.
