Abstract
The present invention relates to the process for producing knitted fabrics, in particular seat covers having integrated fasteners. The object of the invention is to improve upon a process of this type so that stable fasteners can be quickly incorporated into a knitted fabric without the need for a great deal of additional work. To accomplish this, at least one connecting piece made of a thermoplastic material is integrated into the knitted fabric by knitting it into said knitted fabric, and it is then subjected to a thermal treatment in order to form a fastener from the connecting piece.
