In the production of tights on a circular knitting machine, the needle cylinder is operated with continuous motion to form a first tubular leg portion. The needles along a first arc are then excluded, and a trapezoidal fabric flap is knitted along a second arc, explementary to the first arc, using oscillating motion of the needle cylinder, needles being progressively excluded along third and fourth arcs, at each end of the second arc whereby to form inclined sides of the flap. Knitting of the flap is completed along a fifth arc defined between the ends of the third and fourth arcs. A second trapezoidal fabric flap is knitted along the fifth arc, needles being progressively included along the third and fourth arcs. The second flap is connected to the first flap during knitting and the two flaps form the pants portion of the tights. After completion of the second flap, a second tubular leg portion is formed using continuous motion of the needle cylinder. |
