Abstract of GB 2454677 (A)
An elasticized warp knitted fabric (50;
100) and a process for knitting hereof. The elasticized warp knitted fabric
comprises a group (52) of front yarns (54) knitted to form separate wales (56)
of pillar stitches (58). The wales (56) are interconnected by at least one
group (60, 62) of elastomeric rear yarns (64, 66). The path of each elastomeric
rear yarn (64, 66) between respective wales (56) determines the modulus of the
fabric (50; 100) in a course wise direction. In a first preferred embodiment
each elastomeric rear yarn is knitted within a given wale for seven courses and
the elastomeric rear yarn extends between three or more adjacent wales in a
first direction and in a second direction, the first and second directions
being opposite one another and placed before and after the seven courses
respectively.
