An article includes a knitted component of unitary knit construction. The knitted component has a first edge and a second edge. The knitted component has a length that is measured between the first edge and the second edge. The length is substantially fixed. The knitted component also includes a base structure and an adjustment member that is integrally knit to the base structure. The adjustment member includes a bunched region that is configured to slide along the base structure between a first position on the knitted component and a second position on the knitted component.

1. An article comprising: a knitted component of unitary knit construction, the knitted component having a first edge and a second edge, the knitted component having a length that is measured between the first edge and the second edge, the length being substantially fixed, the knitted component including: a base structure being substantially inelastic,an adjustment member that is integrally knit to the base structure, the adjustment member including a bunched region that is configured to slide along the base structure between a first position on the knitted component and a second position on the knitted component, anda supported area and at least one free area, wherein the base structure extends through the supported area and the base structure is spaced from the at least one free area. 2. The article of claim 1, wherein the bunched region is closer to the first edge in the first position, and wherein the bunched region is closer to the second edge in the second position. 3. The article of claim 2, wherein the base structure includes at least one strand that has a substantially fixed length and that limits the elongation of the length of the knitted component. 4. The article of claim 3, wherein the at least one strand extends in a serpentine pattern between the first edge and the second edge. 5. The article of claim 4, wherein the knitted component includes a third edge and a fourth edge that each extend between the first edge and the second edge, the first edge and the second edge being opposite from each other, and the third edge and the fourth edge being opposite from each other, the at least one strand having a first end and a second end, the at least one strand including a middle portion between the first end and the second end, the middle portion including a plurality of turns, the first end disposed adjacent the third edge, the second end disposed adjacent the fourth edge, each of the plurality of turns disposed adjacent one of the first edge and the second edge. 6. The article of claim 3, wherein the at least one strand is a monofilament. 7. The article of claim 1, wherein the base structure includes at least one strand, wherein the adjustment member includes a knitted course and a knitted wale, and wherein the at least one strand is inlaid within at least one of the knitted course and the knitted wale. 8. The article of claim 1, wherein the at least one free area exhibits more curvature than the supported area in the bunched region. 9. The article of claim 8, wherein the knitted component also includes a third edge that extends between the first edge and the second edge, wherein the at least one free area and the supported area both extend substantially continuously between the first edge and the second edge, wherein the at least one free area extends along the third edge, and wherein the supported area is spaced from the third edge. 10. The article of claim 9, wherein the at least one free area includes a first free area and a second free area, wherein the knitted component also includes a fourth edge that extends between the first edge and the second edge, the fourth edge being opposite the third edge, wherein the first free area extends along the third edge, wherein the second free area extends along the fourth edge, and wherein the supported area is spaced from the third edge and the fourth edge. 11. The article of claim 1, wherein the article is an article of footwear further comprising an upper and a sole structure that are coupled together, the article of footwear also including a strap that is coupled to the upper, the strap including the knitted component. 12. The article of claim 1, wherein the article is an article of apparel further comprising a body and a support strap that is configured to support the body. 13. The article of claim 12, wherein the article of apparel is a brassiere. 14. The article of claim 1, wherein the article is a belt that includes the knitted component and a fastening device. 15. An article comprising: a strap having a first edge and a second edge and a length measured between the first edge and the second edge, wherein the length is substantially fixed, the strap including a knitted component of unitary knit construction, the knitted component including: a base structure that includes at least one strand,an adjustment member that is integrally knit to the base structure, the adjustment member including a bunched region that is configured to slide along the at least one strand between a first position on the knitted component and a second position on the knitted component, wherein the bunched region is closer to the first edge in the first position, and wherein the bunched region is closer to the second edge in the second position, anda supported area and at least one free area, wherein the base structure extends through the supported area and the base structure is spaced from the at least one free area;wherein the at least one strand is fixed to the adjustment member. 16. The article of claim 15, wherein the at least one strand has a substantially fixed length, the at least one strand configured to limit the elongation of the length of the knitted component. 17. The article of claim 15, wherein the at least one strand extends in a serpentine pattern between the first edge and the second edge. 18. The article of claim 17, wherein the knitted component includes a third edge and a fourth edge that each extend between the first edge and the second edge, the first edge and the second edge being opposite from each other, and the third edge and the fourth edge being opposite from each other, the at least one strand having a first end and a second end, the at least one strand including a middle portion between the first end and the second end, the middle portion including a plurality of turns, the first end disposed adjacent the third edge, the second end disposed adjacent the fourth edge, each of the plurality of turns disposed adjacent one of the first edge and the second edge. 19. The article of claim 15, wherein the at least one strand is a monofilament. 20. The article of claim 15, wherein the adjustment member includes a knitted course and a knitted wale, and wherein the at least one strand is inlaid within at least one of the knitted course and the knitted wale. 21. The article of claim 15, wherein the article is a belt that includes strap and a fastening device that is coupled to the strap. 22. The article of claim 1, wherein the base structure includes an inlaid strand secured to the adjustment member. 23.
