Abstract: A female member of a hook and loop attachment structure enables a one to one correspondence between loops and stitches in the knitted structure. The female member comprises individual wales of chain stitches with loops, wherein the wales of chain stitches are knitted on a supporting background, such that there is a corresponding number of loops to stitches. Each stitch may be associated with a respective loop or each loop may be attached to two respective stitches. The loops may be formed using a single guide bar, and the wales of chain stitches with loops may be made either with a single yarn or with two yarns.

Abstract: A warp knitted fabric having interlaced loops on the surface of the fabric. Each loop in each wale being interlaced with the loops on the adjacent wales. Such a fabric is suitable for use as part of a hook and loop attachment or fastening structure, although the fabric will find other uses and the invention is not limited to the use of the fabric as part of a hook and loop attachment. The loops on each wale are interlaced with the loops on each adjacent loops are formed from different yarns.
