ABSTRACT:
The single-ply decorative simulated lace edge of the sock of the present invention is formed by successively knitting first and second groups of tuck stitch loops each extending over multiple courses and while forming the second group of tuck stitch loops in spaced-apart wales which are offset relative to the wales in which the first group of tuck stitch loops are formed. The offset groups of tuck stitch loops cause the fabric to be drawn inwardly and the plain stitch loops therebetween are deformed inwardly to provide a checkerboardlike decorative pattern of alternating depressed fabric areas and tuck stitch loops. The first group of tuck stitch loops also draws the selvage makeup inwardly in those wales in which the tuck stitch loops are formed and provides a scalloped lower edge on the decorative edge portion. The upstanding and outwardly turned two-ply cuff is integrally knit at its lower edge so that the width of the cuff and the location of the single-ply decorative simulated lace edge remains the same during wear of the sock.
