Abstract
A handle for a mattress, box spring or other bedding structure is formed of an elongate textile web having a lengthwise-extending relatively stiffer main body and relatively softer lengthwise-extending cushioning edges along opposite sides of the main body. The main body preferably comprises two face-abutting layers of the textile web with the cushioning edges connecting the two layers at each opposite side of the main body. The textile web may be of a crochet-type warp-knitted fabric comprised of interknitted warp and filling yarns.

A bedding handle comprising main body extending in a lengthwise direction and cushioning edges extending in the lengthwise direction along opposite sides of the main body, the main body and the cushioning edges comprising integral portions of an elongate textile web wherein the main body has a contrasting textile structure to the textile structure of the cushioning edges which renders the main body relatively stiffer than the cushioning edges and the cushioning edges relatively softer than the main body.
