Abstract
There is provided a method for preventing deknitting of knitted tubular articles or garments such as gloves, socks, and the like. Accordingly, the edge of the tubular article or garment is provided with a plurality of horizontally knit rows of thread or yarn which are stretchable or elastic, and a vertical stretchable or elastic yarn or thread is knitted over and around 2 to 12 rows of the horizontal knit rows with gradually increasing tension so as to cause the edge to curl or roll over as a result of the vertical knit.
