Abstract
Where a knitted cover is intended to be subjected to a heat treatment to stabilize or otherwise process the fabric, it is useful to form a knitted-in portion (in an unobtrusive portion of the cover) using a suitably heat-sensitive yarn so that such heat treatment indicator portion undergoes a visual and tactile change to reveal that the cover has been so treated.
