摘要 |
The invention relates to a knitted fabric comprising a first low-extensible area ( 1 ) and a second high-extensible area ( 2 ) which is seamlessly connected thereto. The aim of the invention is to provide a knitted fabric which can be used to produce a compression article, having areas of different high compression and wherein the difference in compression of the individual areas is as high as possible and can be obtained in a manner which is as simple and economical as possible. According to the invention, the knitted fabric is formed from at least one knitted thread ( 3 ), which forms a basic knit, and welt threads ( 4 ) which are integrated therein. The differing amounts of extensibility of the two areas ( 1; 2 ) arises from different integration of the weft threads ( 4 ) into the basic knit. The invention also relates to a compression article, particularly a compression hose which is produced from the inventive knitted fabric.
