Abstract

A method for making a textile web with a base web and at least one tubular knitting region (21, 21′, 23, 23′) extending transversely to a knitting direction on a straight and circular knitter with at least two opposite needle beds includes making the tubular region(s) (21, 21′, 23, 23′) on a needle bed, whereby from a starting knitting row (15, 15′), a part of the needles (B, F, J, N, d, n, 1) respectively hold the knitting of the base web without knitting and with the other needles, knitting rows for making the tubular region according to the desired length are formed, before knitting is formed again in an ending knitting row (16, 16′) of the tubular region with the needles (B, F, J, N, d, h, 1) holding the knitting of the base web. The free end of the tubular region is connected with the base web.
