Abstract
A warp knit fabric which is stretchable in the direction of the wales by virtue of elastomer yarn forming the wales is made ravel resistant when cut in a transverse direction, by having a plurality of ends of elastomer yarn form each wale, with each yarn end having alternating knitted and laid in portions, each for a succession of stitches, the knitting and laying in of one yarn end being out of phase with the knitting and laying in of another yarn end. The wales are interconnected by inelastic yarn to form the fabric.
