<p>A knitted material having a multiplicity of upstanding hook-like engaging elements suitable for engagement and disengagement with a material having loop-like mating elements has a base knitted fabric (20) and upstanding monofilamentary members (44) interknitted into the base fabric, with a hook-like engaging member (46) extending transversely of each upstanding member (44) and configured in cross section to have at least one end generally arcuate in shape and the opposite end tapered for greater flexibility. In a method for producing the knitted material, monofilamentary pile loops (22) are interknitted with the base fabric 20 and their crests contacted with a heated member (38) with relative translational movement therebetween as by rotation of the needle cylinder so as to produce said monofilamentary members (44) with said particularly configured engaging elements (46). <IMAGE></p> |
