Abstract
A pantyhose garment comprises a panty portion and two leg portions formed of circumferentially extending interknit courses of yarn. The panty portion provides greater compression than the leg portions. Both the panty and leg portions contain alternating courses of covered spandex yarn and body yarn. The spandex yarns in both the panty and leg portions are covered with bicomponent nylon yarn. The spandex yarn in the panty portion is of a larger denier than the spandex yarn in the leg portions, while the covering yarn on the spandex yarn in the leg portions is of a larger denier than the covering yarn on the spandex yarn in the panty portion. The resulting garment is a pantyhose with a generally uniform opacity throughout the panty and leg portions which nonetheless provides extra support in the panty portion. The invention also finds application in other circular knit garments.
