A double-faced reversible color effect fabric is produced on a double bed weft knitting machine with three yarn feeding systems. The first yarn feeder feeds yarn of a first color for the front of the fabric. The second yarn feeder feeds yarn of a second color for the rear of the fabric. The third yarn feeder, according to the invention, feeds a stretchable yarn which serves as an intermediate to interlock between the stitches formed on the front bed and the stitches formed on the rear bed. According to the presently preferred embodiment, the double-faced reversible color effect fabric is produced with a six step/six course knit and tuck knitting process whereby the produced fabric has no air pockets between fabric layers and has no visible tuck marks or mesh openings. The methods of the invention can be used to form a double-faced fabric with or without a motif. |
