ABSTRACT:
A method for forming a closed end on a tubular knitted fabric, such as a stocking, on a circular knitting machine, in which two annular tubular layers are formed as continuations of the tubular knitted fabric at separate stages by needles operating in the same cylinder of the machine. The two layers are supported on separate circles of support members while a relative rotation through at least 180.degree. between the circles of support members is effected, and a final few rows of substantially run-proof close knitting are made before the fabric is cast-off from the needles.
