Abstract
A method of knitting a multi-dimensional fabric for use in upholstery is accomplished by simultaneously knitting rib and jersey wales. The resultant fabric creates a layered or convex pocket appearance similar to that of pleated fabric formed by sewing. The method uses movement of the rib forming carriage to form pockets that are connected by the jersey stitches on the rear face and rib stitches on the face of the fabric.
