(54)	Method and band for making quick overlockings with an improved alignment

(57) A method of making quick overlockings comprises the steps of manufacturing a band with at least one course of the knitted fabric made of an elastic yarn for producing a fold along said one course; folding back the band along the fold for juxtaposing it with a knitted element to which it is to be applied; sewing knitted element and edge close to the elastic course. In addition, in accordance with the invention, a band for quick overlocking is provided for being folded back to form at least one fold (15) along which it is to be sewn to a knitted element (12) to be trimmed therewith. At the fold position, the band is formed with a course (14) of knitted stitches made of an elastic yarn so as to promote folding.
