ABSTRACT:
A knitting method that can permit the forming of a connecting part of the knitting fabric overlapped in front and back, such as a pleat or fly, even when the knitting fabric is knitted in a double jersey stitch structure. The method comprises the steps that the first and second knitting fabrics are knitted in double jersey stitch structure; that stitch loops of one of the first and second knitting fabrics which are to be overlapped with related stitch loops of the other of the first and second knitting fabrics are transferred to the opposed needle beds, whereby the first and second knitting fabrics are divided between the first needle bed and the second needle bed; that stitch loops of one of the first and second knitting fabrics which are not to be overlapped with related stitch loops of the other of the first and second knitting fabrics are held on the needles of the opposed needle beds, whereby the stitch loops of the first knitting fabric are retained by the needles of the first needle bed and the stitch loops of the second knitting fabric are retained by the needles of the second needle bed; that the first needle bed and/or the second needle beds are racked in a direction of the first knitting fabric and the second knitting fabric being moved closer to each other, so that the first and second knitting fabrics can be overlapped with each other in front and back; that the stitch loops held on the needles of each of the opposed needle beds are transferred back to their original needle beds; and that stitch loops of the next course are formed in double jersey stitch structure in the needles belonging in the region in which the first and second knitting fabrics are retained with overlapped in front and back.
