ABSTRACT:
A method for increasing stitches at intermediate positions in a row of stitches of a rib knit fabric comprising the steps of: leaving a set of two target knitting needles on the front and rear beds, respectively, unoccupied, where increased stitches are to be formed, by shifting a predetermined number of loops from the knitting needles including the target needles in either leftward or rightward direction; forming stitches on knitting needles from one end of a knitting area to before the two target knitting needles; hooking a thread of yarn on first one of the unoccupied target knitting needles located next to the knitting needle to which the thread has been supplied at the end of the preceding course; hooking the thread on the other unoccupied target knitting needles; and, moving a carriage in a reverse direction and applying the thread again to the first target knitting needle to form an increased stitch.
