Abstract: A slide fastener stringer has a warp-knit stringer tape including a pair of longitudinal warp-knit webs spaced transversely from each other with a wale-free region therebetween and interconnected by a connecting thread having substantially parallel spaced portions extending transversely across the wale-free region, thereby defining a plurality of substantially rectangular openings longitudinally along the wale-free region. The slide fastener stringer is attached to a knit fabric of wool yarn by a row of loops constituted by a course of the knit fabric and looped respectively around the parallel portions of the connecting thread. Alternatively, a row of loops extending through the knit fabric along a wale thereof into the rectangular openings are interlooped by chain stitches, thereby connecting the stringer and the knit article together. The loops and chain stitches are made of wool yarn that is substantially as stretchable as the knit fabric.
