ABSTRACT:
An improved seamless crotch pantyhose garment includes an integrally knitted, continuous tubular blank having a pair of seamless tubular leg portions and a body portion which is knit integral with and interconnects the leg portions, thereby defining a seamless crotch area. The body portion is slit walewise to define a body receiving opening opposite to the seamless crotch. A decorative lace-like material which is substantially wider than the normal or even widest elastic support known and of substantially greater strength than the tubular blank is sewn onto the body portion of the blank about the slit to thereby define a panty portion of pantyhose which material provides the additional depth required to provide a satisfactory reach or rise from the crotch to the waistband necessary for a well fitted undergarment. In addition, the lace-like material, while enhancing the aesthetic appearance of the pantyhose, also, substantially strengthens the pantyhose against tears, snags or the propagation of runs to thereby increase the longevity of the undergarment.
