Abstract
A method for producing open-knit fabric with machines for knitting hosiery or other articles and an open-knit article obtained with the method. The method consists in producing in succession rows of knitting (A,B,C) by means of a plurality of needles (1,2), with openwork being performed which is constituted by holes, each of which is provided by means of a group of needles (1,2) in which a first needle (1), after taking part in the formation of a first row (A) of knitting, is freed from the loop (1a) of the first row (A) of knitting by transferring the loop to a second needle (2) that is contiguous to the first needle (1). The first needle (1) is actuated so as to resume knitting, forming a new loop (1b) of a row (B) of knitting that is subsequent to the first row (A). It is optionally possible to gradually free a plurality of needles, by transferring the corresponding loop to a contiguous needle, and/or to vary the number of rows of knitting after which the needles freed from the related loop resume knitting, and/or to varying the stitch that is produced by these needles when knitting resumes, so as to vary the dimensions and/or shape of the holes that constitute the openwork.
