Abstract

The disclosure discloses a method of whole garment knitting in horizontal direction along the back center, and belongs to the technical field of knitted fabrics. The method can be used for directly knitting an integrally shaped left piece and right piece, wherein a sleeve, a front body, a back body, a front placket, a lapel and a lapel collar of the left piece or the right piece are all integrally shaped, and can be directly sewn at back center lines and collar center lines through a looper to form a fully-shaped upper garment including plackets and a collar portion. According to the solution, the knitting process is simple, manual or single yarn lifting sewing is not needed, and the garment knitting efficiency is improved. Moreover, the lapel collar and the plackets of the fabric knitted according to the solution are all of double-side double-layer structures, so that the thickness and stiffness are greater than those of the body; and the single yarn lifting sewing at the left side seams, right side seams and armholes is not needed, so that the texture of the fabric is improved.
