ABSTRACT:
In a method of knitting a tubular knitted fabric comprising a first knitted fabric and a second knitted fabric, regions A, B, C in the first knitted fabric of the tubular knitted fabric are folded back at their respective boundaries and then overlapped with a corresponding part of the second knitted fabric and held in that overlapped state. The method comprises (a) the step of forming the region A in the state in which the regions B and C of the first knitted fabric and the second knitted fabric are attached to needles on the second needle bed, (b) the step of forming the region B of the first knitted fabric in the state in which the region A of the first knitted fabric is attached to needles on the first needle bed and also the region C of the first knitted fabric and the second knitted fabric are attached to the needles on the second needle bed, (c) the step of forming the region C of the first knitted fabric in the state in which the regions A and B of the first knitted fabric is attached to the needles on the first needle bed and also the second knitted fabric is attached to the needles on the second needle bed, and (d) the step of forming the second knitted fabric in the state in which the regions A, B, and C of the first knitted fabric are attached to the needles on the first needle bed. This knitting can permit knitting of the tubular knitted fabric of a larger diameter using the needle bed having the common width.
