Three variations of a process for interconnecting the sleeves and the torso portion of a sleeved clothing article during production of the sleeved clothing article on a two bed flat bed knitting machine include one variation of the process which provides sleeves having seam regions extending perpendicularly to the shoulders; another variation which provides sleeves having seam regions extending at an angle to the shoulders; and further variations which provides raglan sleeves.
