ABSTRACT:
A method of finishing the edges of a knitted fabric which makes use of a flat knitting machine which has at least a pair of front and rear needle beds, one bed or both being arranged for lengthwise movement, transferring edge loops of the knitted fabric hooked on their respective knitting needles from one needle bed to the other; knitting a strand of stitches from a given number of the loops carried on the knitting needles of the needle bed at one side; transferring the front end loops of the strand onto desired knitting needles of the opposite needle bed; moving the needle beds relative to each other for displacing the front end loops of the strand from the start position of the same; placing the front end loops of the strand over given edge loops of the knitted fabric for coupling; and repeating the foregoing steps from transferring the edge loops of the knitted fabric to placing the front end loops of the strand over given edge loops of the knitted fabric.
