Provided is a knitting method of a bag-shaped knitted fabric that can make a setup portion inconspicuous in knitting a bag-shaped knitted fabric from a closed end region in which a tube diameter changes. A knitting method of a bag-shaped knitted fabric for knitting a bag-shaped knitted fabric including a closed end region and a remaining part other than the closed end region, including: a step A of forming a setup portion in which a knitting yarn is alternately held on a front needle bed and a back needle bed; a step B of forming the closed end region by repeating, sequentially from one end side in a knitting width direction of the setup portion toward another end side thereof, C-shaped knitting in which the one end side serves as a turn back side; and a step C of knitting the remaining part of the bag-shaped knitted fabric, following a termination in a wale direction of the closed end region. In the step B, when repeating the C-shaped knitting, a portion on the front needle bed side of the setup portion and a portion on the back needle bed side of the setup portion are connected directly or indirectly, and a knitting width of the C-shaped knitting is changed.

There is provided a method for producing a shoe upper with which a shoe upper can be produced with high productivity, and a shoe upper obtained with the method for producing the shoe upper. An instep cover section () and a sole cover section () are integrally knitted in a seamless manner by carrying out process &#x3b1; and then carrying out process &#x3b2; or by carrying out process &#x3b2; and then carrying out process &#x3b1; with a flat knitting machine including at least a pair of a front and a back needle bed. [Process &#x3b1;] Knitting a main body left portion (L), which is a left side portion of the instep cover section (), with one needle bed of the flat knitting machine and knitting a main body right portion (R), which is a right side portion of the instep cover section (), with the other needle bed of the flat knitting machine. [Process &#x3b2;] Knitting a bottom left portion (L), which is a left side portion of the sole cover section () with one needle bed, and a bottom right portion (R), which is a right side portion of the sole cover section (), with the other needle bed.

Provided is a footwear that excels in productivity and shape retaining property. Footwear is knitted seamlessly with a flat knitting machine having at least a pair of a front and a back needle bed and includes a base knit fabric portion having a mixed section knitted using a first knitting yarn and a second knitting yarn interwoven along the first knitting yarn. The first knitting yarn configuring the mixed section of the footwear is a knitting yarn that is not a heat-fusible yarn, and the second knitting yarn is a heat-fusible yarn having thermal adhesiveness and heat-shrinkable properties. The second knitting yarn preferably has a configuration including a core made from a material that contracts by heat, and a sheath made from a material having a lower fusing point than the core.

Footwear, and knitting method for knit fabric

There is provided a method for knitting a knitted fabric, different from a conventional method, of forming a suppressing section for suppressing a stretch in the knitting width direction of the knitted fabric in the knitting process of the knitted fabric. One side in a longitudinal direction of needle beds (FB, BB) is assumed as a moving direction (DR). A suppressing section () is formed by repeating performing of a bind-off process, in which a first stitch () held on one needle bed (FB) is overlapped with a second stitch () that is proximate in the moving direction (DR) and a retaining stitch () is knitted following in a wale direction of a double stitch () of the first stitch () and the second stitch (), and forming of a new base stitch () branched from at least one of the first stitch () and the second stitch ().

Method for knitting knitted fabric

It is an objective of the present invention to provide a method for knitting a novel knitted fabric in which a stitch direction on an instep side is orthogonal to a stitch direction on a sole side using a flat knitting machine. In a sole section (), a pickup stitch () in which a cover section () continues to a left side and a right side of the sole section () is formed while moving a stitch row of a BB, which becomes a part of a toe section (), toward one side (right) in a knitting width direction. In the cover section (), a three-dimensional cover section () is formed by carrying out a narrowing knitting while forming a new stitch following a stitch row of an FB of the toe section (), a stitch row of an BB of the toe section () in which the pickup stitch () is formed on a left side () and a right side () of the sole section () while being moved toward the right, and a stitch row of the pickup stitch ().

Method for knitting footwear

Disclosed is a tubular knit glove and method of flatbed knitting. The outward portion of a thumb pouch () is knitted while the direction of the wales continues from the end of a four finger body () with a reciprocating motion in the direction of the course. Rows of stitches are knit in the center and yarn-overs () are added on each side as connecting stitches. The inward portion of a thumb pouch () forms rows of stitches that link with the yarn-overs () when knitting back from the end of the outward portion of the thumb pouch (). After forming a thumb pouch (), a five finger body () is knit as a circularly-knit tube wherein the knitting thread revolves in the course direction completing a glove ().
