ABSTRACT:
A method of knitting a knit-in rib or tubular jacquard of a double-jersey weave into a tubular body free or substantially free of a sewing process by forming a course of loops of either of the front fabric or the rear fabric with knitting needles from a first needle bed. The method includes the steps of transferring the knitted loops of the fabric at its inside portion for the knit-in jacquard to be knitted in to the knitting needles of the second needle bed facing the first needle bed so that the number of fabric wales at its inside portion is half gauge of the fabric at its outside surface, forming a course of knitted loops of the knit-in jacquard by using the needles of the first and second needle beds retaining the fabric knitted loops, transferring the knitted fabric loops of the inside portion formed with the needles of the second needle bed back to the knitting needles of the first needle bed facing the second needle bed, and knitting courses of knitted loops of the other of the front fabric and the rear fabric. The above steps are repeated to knit the the knit-in jacquard of a double-jersey weave into the tubular knitting body.
