Abstract: An upper-torso garment includes a tubular-jacquard knit zone with a plurality of front-stitch courses and a plurality of back-stitch courses, where each front stitch course intermittently interlocks with a back-stitch course to form a plurality of interlocked courses. Interlocking cross overs within a first interlocked course are offset from interlocking cross overs within an adjacent second interlocked course.

Abstract: An upper-torso garment includes a chest-covering portion having a knit textile region, which includes a plurality of courses fully spanning a dome-shaped portion. In addition, the knit textile region includes a plurality of partial-length courses partially spanning the dome-shaped portion.

Abstract: An upper-torso garment includes a first knit zone and a second knit zone. The first knit zone includes a first tubular-jacquard knit structure and having a first modulus of elasticity, and the second knit zone includes a second tubular-jacquard knit structure and having a second modulus of elasticity, which is greater than the first modulus of elasticity.

Abstract: Aspects of a flat-knit support garment for an upper torso are provided. The flat-knit support garment may include a bra structure having a flat-knit bra material that includes a cup zone, a body zone, a wing zone, a strap zone, and a chestband zone. In some instances, a perimeter of the flat-knit bra comprising a neck opening and armhole openings includes a finished edge treatment corresponding to a high stretch modulus, covered yarn. Such finished edges are generated in seamless construction with the unitary, flat-knit structure of the flat-knit support garment for an upper torso. The flat-knit characteristics of the support garment for an upper torso may correspond to one or more of a flat-knit stitch sequence, a yarn type, and/or a finishing treatment.

Abstract: An upper-torso garment includes a chest-covering portion. The chest-covering portion includes a knit textile region having a tubular-jacquard knit structure. The tubular-jacquard knit structure includes a number of interlocking cross overs in which a first yarn strand transfers from the front bed to the back bed and a second yarn strand transfers from the back bed to the front bed, and in which the yarn strands transfer back over.
