WEFT KNITTED RASCHEL-LIKE THERMAL FABRIC, AND METHOD OF KNITTING THE SAME Abstract A weft knitted thermal fabric simulating raschel thermal fabric in appearance and in heat insulating property. The fabric has a multitude of air-entrapping cells formed on at least one side to provide dead air spaces, thereby giving the fabric an enhanced heat retention quality. The air-entrapping cells are three dimensional cavities defined by spaced side walls and spaced top and bottom walls. Each wall comprises elevated fabric formed of two separate, closely spaced, wale- wise extending, ribs of knitted stitches, the stitches of the two ribs being connected and drawn together by yarn floats. The air-entrapping cells are provided with floors composed of a knitted wale formed of alternating tuck loops and knitted stitches. The fabric is knit on a 1 x 1 rib knitting machine operated in alternating repeat sequences to produce knitted stitches, floats and tuck loops selectively in the fabric, to provide successive rows of air-entrapping cells, with the cells of each row staggered relative to the cells of the next adjacent rows.
