ABSTRACT:
The present hosiery article includes an anti-slip lower sole portion formed with outwardly extending loops of yarn having a high coefficient of friction, such as bare spandex, which is integrally knit with the body yarn during the knitting of the foot portion of the hosiery article. The loops of friction yarn on the outer surface of the sole portion engage the floor and minimize slippage of the foot of the wearer. This hosiery article is particularly adapted for use by bed patients and the formation of the loops of friction yarn does not unduly restrict the contraction and stretchability of the hosiery article.
