Jersey sock openwork by transfer of the point, with the effect of drawing in the color on a part of the leg, and the fabrication device for equipping a job yankee for socks

摘要

A stocking for a certain leg length is of openwork patterned knitting executed by stitch transfer over its entire circumference, and then comprises a leg portion in which the patterned knitting is interrupted in a certain part of the circumference by a zone of plain knitting (C) with coloured design effects (plated), and after this can again be of patterned knitting over its entire circumference. The device for producing the stocking comprises a single cylinder machine with stitch transfer pushers in cylinder slots alternating with the needles. A selection system selects the needles and pushers for controlling the pattern and includes a lever for nullifying the needle and pusher selection in the zone of plain knitting (C). Coloured yarn is fed in and a retractable cam raises the needles to the height of the yarn when knitting the zone C. A second selector system selects the needles and pushers which are not required to take the coloured yarn and makes them inoperative. IMAGE
