Abstract

A warp knitted fabric to be used for an epidermis material to avoid stickiness and dampness due to sweating when one is seated for a long time, and which is light-weight and provides superior functionality; has a denbigh stitch texture or a cord stitch textureformed by supplying a base yarn by a front guide bar of a warp knitting machine having at least two guide bars, supplying an insertion yarn by a guide bar rearward of the front guide bar to knit an insertion texture, and knitting the insertion yarn underlapping the insertion yarn in the same direction and by an amount corresponding to the same number of needles as the underlapping of the base yarn supplied by the front guide bar, whereby the insertion yarn is exposed at a sinker-loop-side surface of a warp knitted fabric intermittently in a warp direction.

Abstract

An opal-finished fabric having a stereoscopic pattern is provided, in which both the fiber-decomposed part and the non-decomposed fiber part are rich in color expression, and the fiber-decomposed part having a sufficient strength with a thin material having highly transparent appearance in the fiber-decomposed part. The fabric is an opal-finished fabric obtained with two or more kinds of fibers and formed with a fiber-decomposed part showing a transparent appearance by removing at least one kind of the fibers and a non-decomposed fiber part, in which for solving the problems, the fiber-decomposed part contains mainly nylon fibers, and the non-decomposed fiber part contains mainly colored polyester fibers and non-colored nylon fibers. The non-decomposed fiber part is preferably constituted by a layer containing mainly polyester fibers and a layer containing mainly nylon fibers. The stretchability thereof can be improved by using the fabric further containing polyurethane fibers or weaving the fiber-decomposed part with an atlas stitch structure or a two-needle stitch structure.
