Abstract

A spacer knit fabric if formed with a first two-dimensional knit fabric layer and a second two-dimensional knit fabric layer. The first and the second two-dimensional knit fabric layers are interconnected via knitted spacer threads. The first two-dimensional knit fabric layer has openings formed by a plurality of stitches in each case. Threads of a first thread system, which forms the first two-dimensional knit fabric layer, are connected to each other solely by mutual intertwining. Channels are formed between the first and the second two-dimensional knit fabric layers that are free from spacer threads. The threads of a second thread system, which forms the second two-dimensional knit fabric layer, are connected to one another by intertwining and by at least partial fusion.
