<p>A textile garment in the form of a bra or ladies top is produced from a knitted component ( 11 ) formed using a circular knitting technique, with the component ( 11 ) formed as one piece comprising a first part ( 11 a) and a second part ( 11 b), the shape of the second part ( 11 b) being generally a mirror image of the shape of first part ( 11 a) when viewed with respect to a dividing line ( 12 ) disposed half way along the tubular construction. The knitted construction is produced from yarns which are electrically insulative. However, two regions of the knitted construction ( 11 ) include electrically conductive yarns to form electrodes ( 15 ). Conductive yarn is also used to produce conductive tracking ( 16 ) leading from each electrode ( 15 ). The second part ( 11 b) is lifted up to fold the knitted construction at dividing line ( 12 ) such that the second part ( 11 b) forms an outer layer while the first part ( 11 a) forms an inner layer. Thus the conductive electrode forming regions ( 15 ) become part of the inner layer, where they are electrically insulated by the outer layer.</p> |
