Abstract (en)

A toe closing method for closing a toe end (110) with first and second circumferential portions (10, 20) includes the steps of: folding the first circumferential portion (10) to superimpose over the second circumferential portion (20) such that the toe end (110) is formed with opposed first and second end points (130, 140); knitting a stitching thread (T) by threading the same through the loops (120) of the superimposed circumferential portions (10, 20) to form a first loose thread (31) and an initial stitch segment (30); continuously knitting the thread (T) around the superimposed circumferential portions (10, 20) until the second end point (140) is reached to form a joining segment (40) ; and continuously knitting the thread (T) around a part of the joining segment (40) to form at least one tail portion (51, 52) and a second loose thread (53).
