Abstract

Abstract A double knit fabric is described which has a front surface comprising courses of plain knit stitches formed from two synthetic fiber yarns such as polyester and rear surface comprising courses of plain knit stitches formed from a natural fiber yarn such as cotton, or a blended yarn. Each of the front and rear surface courses are interlocked with one another by the engagement of a rear surface loop with a front surface loop every several wales to form spaces between the front and rear surfaces and to form spaces in the rear surface through which portions of the front surface appear.
