An article of footwear includes a first envelope that extends lengthwise from a rear end to a front end, widthwise between a lateral side and a medial side, and heightwise from a bottom side to a top side, the first envelope comprising yarns linked to one another mechanically, at least a portion of the yarns comprising at least one hot-melt filament. The yarns comprising at least one hot-melt filament are distributed over the entire first envelope, and the shape of the first envelope is set by melting the yarns that comprise at least one hot-melt filament.

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.

The woven cloth includes a plurality of first threads, a plurality of second threads, and a plurality of third threads. Each first thread and each second thread are woven by a plurality of filaments respectively. Each first thread is interwoven with and ties the plurality of second threads and is interwoven with and ties at least part of the plurality of third threads. The third threads are not interwoven with the plurality of the second threads.

A knitted component may include a loft zone having at least one first loft portion that is integrally knit. The loft portion may include a first knitted layer, a second knitted layer having an elasticated first material, a void between the first knitted layer and the second knitted layer, and at least one course of a second material that is knitted within the void and causes the first knitted layer to extend away from the second knitted layer by a first distance of about 2-5 mm. Each loft portion has a width of about 4-10 mm between connection points between the first and second knitted layers.

A knitted component may include a loft zone having at least one first loft portion that is integrally knit. The loft portion may include a first knitted layer having an elasticated first material, a second knitted layer, a void between the first knitted layer and the second knitted layer, and at least one course of a second material that is knitted within the void and causes the second knitted layer to extend away from the first knitted layer by a first distance. The at least one course of the second material may include at least one float and may project into the void. The second material may have a greater resistance to bending than the elasticated first material.

A circular-knitted part, with a base knitted material knitted with at least one base knitting yarn, the base material having several rows of stitches which are knitted together when seen in the longitudinal direction of the base knitted material and which extend circumferentially in spiral fashion, wherein, seen in the longitudinal direction of the base knitted material, an additional yarn, which forms stitches, is interknitted between two rows of stitches of the base knitted material, thus connecting the rows of stitches together, to form at lease on additional stitch, wherein the additional stitch is formed by at least one separate additional yarn.

Aspects herein are directed to a knit sock having a leg portion and an integrally knit ankle welt extending around a circumference of the leg portion and positioned at a lower end of the leg portion. The knit sock further includes an integrally knit tab located at a back aspect of the ankle welt.

A three-dimensional knitted fabric with a large-diameter circular knitting machine is knitted with a plurality of stitches that form a plurality of stitch courses oriented in each case in a stitch-course direction of the knitted fabric and a plurality of stitch wales oriented in each case in a stitch-wale direction of the knitted fabric, wherein at least one of the stitches is in the form of at least one corrugation-forming stitch, which extends in the stitch-wale direction over a plurality of stitch courses and binds at least one corrugation in the knitted fabric.

A knitted component may include a course of a first yarn type and a course of a second yarn type, a first surface at least partially formed by the course of the first yarn type, and a cavity formed within the knitted component that is recessed relative to the first surface. A first float formed by the course of the second yarn type may extend across the cavity and may be exposed, and the course of the second yarn type may include a stitch that is knitted into the knitted component adjacent the float.

A green ECO mat (GECOMAT) for aeroponics and hydroponics comprises at least one fabric green ECO mat of cultivation being woven to have arrayed multiple 3D-coniform-shaped (alike pyramid shape) chambers, and at least one floating member connects to the fabric green ECO mat. The chambers of the mat are positioned seed, and the floating member floats the mat in a space full with fluid in the nature to collect moisture in the fluid to provide for germination of the seed and growth of the plant. The harvesting means moves back the floating member and the mat when growth of the plant is completed.
