ABSTRACT:
A warp knitted fabric has threads of a ground thread system forming a fabric ground. A pattern thread system also forms different patterned areas both in the weft direction as well as in the warp direction. In a basis area there is provided either cloth lapping (1-0/2-3-1 or 0-1/3-2-1). In the patterned area, a sequence is built by different lappings selected from a group consisting of pillar, tricot, cloth, satin and velvet stitches, in which the average length of the underlaps in predetermined pattern repeats is substantially similar to the underlap length of the cloth lapping. This gives rise to numerous new patterning possibilities, in particular for a jersey fabric. In addition to a described process, a warp knitting machine is provided for making such warp knitted goods. The machine comprises, in addition to a guide bar for the formation of the ground fabric, two pattern forming jacquard controlled guide bars whose guide to guide spacing is twice as large as the space between the needles of the needle bed. Bar control arrangements for the displacement of the bars and jacquard command arrangements for the displacement with respect to individual needles, allow selection of either cloth lap or any of the previously mentioned sequences of different laps. A common warp beam may be used for both partial systems of the pattern thread system.
