ABSTRACT:
The double-layer fabric extends throughout at least a substantial portion of the foot of the sock and both the inner and outer layers of the double-layer fabric in the foot include the same number of wales as the number of wales in the leg portion of the sock. The sock can be knit on a conventional hosiery knitting machine provided with a single set of needles and special sinkers for holding the stitch loops of the last course of the leg while the inner and outer layers of the foot portion of the sock are being knit. The double-layer fabric in the foot of the sock provides improved cushioning and moisture-absorbing characteristics to the sock.
