The knitted fabric is manufactured by a way of knitting a bulky knitted fabric while forming piles and using a pile forming yarn doubled with one or both of a face structure forming foundation yarn and a back structure forming yarn between wales at which these yarns are all stitched together. The knitting is accomplished using a knitting machine wherein needle beds for pile forming needles different from and adjacent to those for forming the foundation structure are provided on one or both of a dial and a cylinder side of the machine so that pile forming needles may project or withdraw to form piles while the foundation structure is knitted.
