a width of a line of a stitch pattern composed only of the ground structure is 1 to 6 mm,
a continuous length of the line of the stitch pattern composed only of the ground structure is 10 mm or more,
a ratio of the width of the line of the stitch pattern composed only of the ground structure to the pile length is 0.09 to 0.30, and
when a weft direction of the pile knitted fabric is placed horizontally, an acute angle formed between the weft direction of the pile knitted fabric and the line of the stitch pattern composed only of the ground structure is 20° to 90°.
2. The pile knitted fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the stitch pattern composed only of the ground structure cannot be seen or noticed in a flat state as viewed from a pile fiber side but appears in a non-flat state.
3. The pile knitted fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the stitch composed only of the ground structure is 15 to 55% based on the total stitches.
4. The pile knitted fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the pile knitted fabric is a sliver knit.
5. A sewn product employing a pile knitted fabric, including:
a pile fiber that is knitted into a stitch of a ground structure and napped therefrom; and
a stitch composed only of the ground structure,
wherein a pile length of the pile knitted fabric is 6 to 25 mm,
a continuous length of a pile fiber portion where the pile fiber is knitted into the stitch of the ground structure and napped therefrom is 10 mm or more,
a width of a line of a stitch pattern composed only of the ground structure is 1 to 6 mm,
a continuous length of the line of the stitch pattern composed only of the ground structure is 10 mm or more,
a ratio of the width of the line of the stitch pattern composed only of the ground structure to the pile length is 0.09 to 0.30, and
when a weft direction of the pile knitted fabric is placed horizontally, an acute angle formed between the weft direction of the pile knitted fabric and the line of the stitch pattern composed only of the ground structure is 20° to 90°.
6. The pile knitted fabric according to claim 2 , wherein the stitch composed only of the ground structure is 15 to 55% based on the total stitches.
7. The pile knitted fabric according to claim 2 , wherein the pile knitted fabric is a sliver knit.
8. The pile knitted fabric according to claim 3 , wherein the pile knitted fabric is a sliver knit.
9. The pile knitted fabric according to claim 6 , wherein the pile knitted fabric is a sliver knit.
10. The sewn product according to claim 5 , wherein, when a weft direction of the sewn product is placed horizontally, an acute angle formed between the weft direction of the sewn product and the line of the stitch pattern composed only of the ground structure is 20° to 90°.
11. The sewn product according to claim 5 , wherein the stitch pattern composed only of the ground structure cannot be seen or noticed in a flat state as viewed from a pile fiber side but appears in a non-flat state.
12. The sewn product according to claim 5 , wherein the stitch composed only of the ground structure is 15 to 55% based on the total stitches.
