Abstract: The invention relates to a knitted seat cover, in the knit of which a bead or tubular knit is joined integrated at least in part in the region of contour lines to simultaneously mask and protect the contour lines.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for integrating fasteners into a knitted seat cover for attachment to a seat-cover support by means of a flatbed knitting machine, whereby fastening areas are provided on the side of the seat cover facing the support for attachment to said support while the seat cover is being knitted and said fastening areas interact with additional fastening areas on the support of the seat cover. According to the invention, the fastening areas on the seat cover are embodied as flat velcro structures (hook and loop closures) while the loop areas of the velcro structures are knitted and integrated into the seat cover as flat surfaces during the manufacture thereof. Hook areas of the velcro structure provided on the seat cover are formed by knitting and integrating a hard or hardenable monofilament in the form of loops that protrude towards the support and are subsequently cut or cut during knock-over/after knock-over of the stitches from the needles of the flatbed knitting machine.
