Abstract
A knitted dual-layer fabric is disclosed, including an outer water-absorbent layer and an inner wicking layer having permanent wicking properties. The inner layer acts to draw moisture toward the outer layer and the outer layer acts to disperse the moisture therethrough. Also disclosed is a method for constructing a knitted dual-layer fabric, which includes: providing first and second yarns; knitting, in a first loop position, a first loop from the first yarn and a second loop from the second yarn; advancing to a next loop position; and repeating the knitting step to produce a plurality of first loops and a plurality of second loops. The first loop is positioned substantially behind the second loop. The plurality of first loops forms a first fabric layer exhibiting characteristics of the first yarn. The plurality of second loops forms a second opposite fabric layer exhibiting characteristics of the second yarn.
