- (a) a knitted ground fabric having wales and courses, said knitted ground fabric having a series of successive, lengthwise fabric areas positioned adjacent to one another;
- (b) a plurality of warpwise inlaid yarns in each of said fabric areas, said inlaid yarns in at least two different fabric areas having at least one of (i) different individual yarn characteristics and (ii) different numbers of warpwise inlaid yarns; such that said two fabric areas have different individual predetermined properties.
- 2. A strip of warp knitted backing fabric as in claim 1 wherein the knitted ground fabric has a single thickness over its entire length and width.
- 3. A strip of warp knitted backing fabric as in claim 2 wherein said individual characteristics is crispness.
- 4. A strip of warp knitted backing fabric as in claim 2 wherein said individual characteristics is yarn size.
- 5. A strip of warp knitted backing fabric as in claim 2 wherein said individual characteristics is density.
- 6. A strip of warp knitted backing fabric as in claim 2 wherein said individual characteristics is bulk.
- 7. A strip of warp knitted backing fabric as in claim 2 wherein said individual characteristics is type of yarn.
- 8. A strip of warp knitted backing fabric as claimed in claim 2 wherein said knitted ground fabric has at least first, second, third and fourth fabric areas, the first, second and third fabric areas being composed of a blend of crisp yarns and thick and flexible yarns, said yarns in said first area being in approximately equal proportions, said yarns in said second area being in proportion of one crisp yarn to two thick and flexible yarns, said yarns in said third area being in proportion of one crisp yarn to three thick and flexible yarns, said yarns in said fourth area being composing of flexible yarns which are thinner than said crisp yarns and said thick and flexible yarns.
- 9. A strip of warp knitted backing fabric as defined by claim 1 wherein said lengthwise fabric areas further include inlaid yarns in the weftwise direction, said inlaid yarns in the weftwise direction in at least two lengthwise fabric areas having at least one of (i) different individual predetermined characteristics and (ii) different numbers of weftwise inlaid yarns.
- 10. A strip of warp knitted backing fabric as in claim wherein said individual characteristics is stiffness.
- 11. A strip of warp knitted backing fabric in claim 9 wherein said individual characteristics is flexibility.
- 12. A strip of warp knitted backing fabric as claimed in claim 8 wherein said lengthwise fabric areas further include inlaid yarns in the weftwise direction, said inlaid yarns in the weftwise direction in at least two lengthwise fabric areas having at least one of (i) different individual predetermined characteristics and (ii) different numbers of weftwise inlaid yarns.
- 13. A strip of warp knitted backing fabric adapted for use as lining or the like in garments, which comprises:
- (a) a knitted ground fabric having wales and courses, said knitted ground fabric having a series of successive, lengthwise fabric areas positioned adjacent to one another;
- (b) a plurality of warpwise inlaid yarns in each of said fabric areas, said warpwise inlaid yarns in at least to different fabric areas having at least one of (i) different individual yarn characteristics and (ii) different numbers of warpwise inlaid yarns; and
- (c) a plurality of weftwise inlaid yarns in each of said fabric areas, said weftwise inlaid yarns in at least two different fabric areas having at least one if (i) different individual yarn characteristics and (ii) different numbers of weftwise inlaid yarns such that said two fabric areas have different individual predetermined properties.
- 14. A strip of warp knitted backing fabric as in claim 13 wherein the knitted ground fabric has a single thickness over its entire length and width.
