Abstract
A knit article having an edge portion subject to raveling including a plurality of knitting courses in said edge portion. Each of the edge portion knitting courses is knitted with at least one strand of a heat fusible yarn, the heat fusible yarn including: i. at least one low melt fiber strand; and ii. at least one additional strand. The low melt fiber strand and the other strand are combined by air interlacing to create a single combined strand and to expose a sufficient amount of the one low melt fiber strand to facilitate a bond to an adjacent yarn strand.
