yarn length and that of creating if required important interlacements of stitches then by disposing some working needles in the concerned area and operating in a single or double crossed diagonal direction braid like effects are obtained instead of the free floating yarns this improves both the aspect and wearing quality of the knitted item having said braids an aesthetic value of great effect as f in fig3 the invention is fully carried out by further handling said floating yarns and converting them into a knitted fabric produced with only part of the needles present in the areas already defined as completely excluded from the tricot formation process in this case the invention is accomplished by sending inputs or information to only part of the needles of the pattern areas previously already excluded according to an established order for instance only odd needles or only needles in alternating pairs will be excluded i e in groups of three working needles followed by one or more excluded needles etc the simultaneous presence of working needles and loops b alternated with excluded needles and loops a fig2 over defined regions and for a relatively long time corresponding to a high number of stitch courses is a sufficient and necessary premise for the production of a new fabric formed by the working needles and relative loops b but interrupted and also braided with the excluded needles and loops a in order to produce a closed or open knitted flounce formed of two layers or cloths b 1 fig2 internally of the usual knitted tube this fabric growing or additional flounce b 1 is characterised on the right side.
