<p>A tubular knitted fabric with annular obliquely arranged elastic knitted fabric area that ensures effective shrinkage along the circling direction of the elastic knitted fabric area; and a knitting method for the tubular knitted fabric. The tubular knitted fabric is obtained by knitting with the use of a flat knitting machine equipped with at least a pair of needlebeds extending in a horizontal direction and facing each other in an anteroposterior direction. The tubular knitted fabric comprises an annular elastic knitted fabric area (20) provided in a direction sloping with respect to the axial direction of the tubular knitted fabric; a first base knitted fabric area (11) coupled to a knitted stitch line appearing on a one edge side in the axial direction of the elastic knitted fabric area (20); and a second base knitted fabric area (12) coupled to a knitted stitch line appearing on the other edge side in the axial direction of the elastic knitted fabric area (20). The elastic knitted fabric area (20) has a course along the circling direction thereof.</p> |
