A knitted undergarment as formed from a knitted blank made entirely by rotary knitting upon a circle of needles of a circular knitting machine by first knitting a seamless tubular elastic waist encircling turned welt upon all of the needles, then knitting a seamless tubular body section in continuation of the welt upon all of the needles, and then knitting spaced seamless nontubular front and rear narrowed panels in continuation of correspondingly spaced portions of the body section upon correspondingly spaced groups of the needles, the yarn being introduced to the needles for the knitting of each course of the panels and being cut and clamped after the knitting of each such course, so that each course of the narrowed panels is knit of a separate length of yarn. The knitted undergarment is completed by joining the terminal end portions of the panels. The narrowed edges of the spaced panels then delineate spaced leg openings therebetween. |
