Abstract
A method of forming a weft knitted fabric upholstery cover having a wale-wise extending flap on its reverse side in which method the excess fabric is knitted coursewise into the cover and is gathered into a flap on the reverse side of the fabric and sewn along its length. The coursewise length of the cover is sufficient so that after gathering to form the flap, the cover is substantially an exact fit over the core.
