The invention relates a warp insertable weft knitting machine in which a knitting yarn is fed only to knitting needles on one of the needle beds, and a fabric can be knitted also with knitting needles on the other of the needle beds, without using a special yarn guide apparatus or the like, using a warp, and a knitting method in the weft knitting machine. When hooks (19) of five knitting needles (17) are advanced from a back needle bed (23) between knitting needles (16a, 16b) on a front needle bed (22), it is possible to knit back stitches with these five knitting needles (17). The number of knitting needle (16a) and the number of knitting needle (16b) may not limited to one, respectively. The knitting needles (16) from the front needle bed (22) can be advanced to an area in which the knitting needles (17) have been advanced from the back needle bed (23), and thus rib, links, or other structures with the knitting needles (16, 17) from the front and back needle beds can be knitted using a knitting yarn fed as a warp.
