The invention relates to a wound dressing which prevents or at least reduces sticking of the dressing to the surface of the wound due to contact with moisture from the wound and which without the use of over twisted threads has a controllable lifting action and an excellent secretion-absorbing action, whereby cutting of the dressing into strips does not lead to lateral fraying due to the cutting of the mesh as is the case with known knitted fabrics and in which the further use leads to complication. The present wound dressing comprises a knitted fabric formed with a basic stitch construction and with a plurality of inlay threads having a Z or S twist, the yarns of the inlay threads having the same thickness and twist, and being inserted as slightly or greatly displaced wefts.
