Abstract

See full text

An example method of manufacturing a knitted fabric that includes a non-knitted structure occurs in accordance with a programmed knit sequence for a multi-dimensional knitting machine. The method includes, providing a non-knitted structure to the multi-dimensional knitting machine at a point in time when a fabric structure has a first knit portion, wherein the first knit portion is formed based on a first type of knit pattern. The method also includes, after the providing of the non-knitted structure, following the programmed knit sequence to automatically adjust the multi-dimensional knitting machine to use a second type of knit pattern, distinct from a first type of knit pattern, to accommodate the non-knitted structure within a second knit portion that is adjacent to the first knit portion within the fabric structure.
