Abstract
A bifurcated sleeve formed of interlaced filamentary members and having two or more flexible tubes joined together at a junction region is disclosed. The junction region is also formed of interlaced filamentary members and reinforced by the presence of elongated strengthening elements interlaced with the filamentary members forming the junction region. The strengthening elements may be multiple filamentary members which are plied or single filamentary members which have a relatively larger denier or increased tensile strength. The sleeve may be woven, knitted or braided. When knitted, the strengthening elements may be laid in or interknitted, and a locking stitch or a denser knit may be used at the junction region.
