Abstract
The present invention provides a method of knitting a double tubular knitted fabric in which an outer tubular section can be formed independent from an inner tubular section while knitting the inner and outer tubular sections simultaneously by a flat knitting machine. Each of the front knitted fabric parts of the inner and outer tubular sections is assigned to one of the front and back needle beds, and each of the back knitted fabric parts of the inner and outer tubular sections is assigned to the other needle beds. The knitting method uses at least two yarn feeders, where the inner tubular section is formed using a yarn from one yarn feeder and the outer tubular section is formed using a yarn from the other yarn feeder. In knitting the outer tubular section, return knitting is performed where a loop is formed subsequent to the loop formed in a going course in a returning course. The outer tubular section is formed in the tubular form by connecting the loops at the boundary of the returning part. In knitting the inner and outer tubular sections, the respective yarn feeders are moved such that the yarns for knitting the inner and outer tubular sections do not intersect.
