Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of knitting, and in particular relates to a knitting method for seamless rib needle jacquard knitting. Background Art
[0002] Existing seamless knitted fabrics are usually based on cylindrical plain needles with single or multi-color strips, 1*1, 2*2 drawstrings and other structures. They are widely popular in the market due to their comfortable feel, good elasticity and beautiful texture. However, for some samples or orders that require local color requirements, it is often difficult to meet customers' aesthetic needs by relying solely on these basic knitted structures. In order to achieve complex patterns on seamless knitted fabrics, manufacturers often need to perform one or more processes such as sewing labeling and computer embroidery on semi-finished products. These processes can effectively add color and design sense to the products and meet customers' personalized needs. However, due to the different materials and processes used in processes such as sewing labeling and computer embroidery, the local texture and elasticity of the product are affected, which further affects the feel and texture consistency of the product. In addition, too many sewing processes will also increase the cost of the product and affect the market competitiveness of the product.
[0003] Patent CN 116732689 A proposes a knitting method for a seamless baseball cap. The method first uses a computerized flat knitting machine to weave, starting with weaving along the base fabric, and alternating between the front bed coils and the rear bed coils. During the weaving process, the front bed coils and the rear window coils use the same yarn feeder and weave upward along the low fabric. The number of knitting needles gradually decreases to form a hemispherical fabric. Finally, the bottom base fabric is removed to obtain a seamless baseball cap. The baseball cap knitted by this method reduces the problems of breakage, thread breakage and unraveling, and increases wearing comfort. However, when this method is applied to seamless jacquard knitting, it is impossible to obtain a clear and rich jacquard pattern while maintaining the elasticity and extensibility of the yarn by seamlessly knitting rib needles. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a knitting method for seamless rib needle jacquard, which is used to solve the technical problem in the prior art that it is impossible to obtain clear and rich jacquard patterns by using seamless rib needle knitting while maintaining the elasticity and extensibility of the yarn.
