Abstract
The method according to the invention permits the tying off of the free yarn ends, for example in Intarsia knit regions, with a straight knitting machine forming the knit goods without additional auxiliary devices which can negatively influence the structure of the knit goods. The method, in one of its most general forms, includes the steps of looping a new yarn strand in the vicinity of an Intarsia knit region edge of the knit goods with needles of a first and second needle bed to form at least one loop having legs; during successive carriage displacements, crossing both legs of at least one loop formed in the first needle bed to form a crossed-over yarn portion associated with the at least one loops; and looping the at least one loop having the legs crossed over on a needle of the second needle bed via the crossed-over portion.
