Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of making stockings in a single operation on a flat knitting machine as well as to stockings thus manufactured.
  • the heel portions of stockings manufactured in a single operation were made either with continued rows of loops, i. e. simultaneously in continuous rows of loops with the instep connecting them, whereby abending of the foot sufficiently corresponding to a humans foot could not be obtained and loop accumulations would result in the instep, or the heel portions were made with discontinued rows of loops, i. e. with the instep loops placed in suspense in which case the outward extension of the heel portions begins with the inner bending of the foot near the ankle, whereby distortions result in the bending of the foot.
  • the method according to the invention of manufacturing a stocking of this kind is carried out in such a manner, that with the beginning of the heel portions the instep loops and the loops of the heel portions, with the exception of a few selvedge loops, are placed in suspense, whereupon, during the formation of the upper part of the heel portions, the number of loops placed in suspense is progressively decreased from the selvedge to the inside. Simultaneously new loop wales are steadily formed at the outside in any suitable manner.
  • the new method of making stockings according to the invention is further improved by the fact that the formation of new loop wales at the outside is continued for some rows of loops while the number of loops placed in suspense at the inside is not further reduced'but enlarged.
  • the connecting loops or nooses thus formed on the progressively operative or inoperative needles can, of course, be made in any suitable manner. . These loops or nooses may, for instance, form, together with the loop heads hanging on the inoperative. needles, interlaced selvedge, split, narrowed or tuck loops.
  • a stocking according to the invention shows a change line between the high heel and the heel coinciding about with the upper edge of the shoe and, moreover, such a stocking obviates the disadvantages of known stockings made in a single operation on fiat knitting machines. In this way it is possible, for ornamenting purposes only,
  • Fig. 1 shows a side elevation of the heel portion of'a stocking according to the invention having a pocket heel with high heel splicing.
  • Fig. 2 is a view showing the position of the loops of a portion of a stockinghaving a pocket heel without high heel splicing fitted to a humans foot.
  • Fig. 3 illustrates the formation of the loops of some courses.
  • the instep loops and the loops of the heel portions are, from the line w--aa", placed in suspense,"the number of the loopsplaced in suspense being progressively decreased and new loop wales are formed at the outside. From line a--a'a.' new loop wales are formed at the outside, while now the number of loops placed in suspense is increased at the inside.
  • the change line a'-a" between the leg or the high heel and the heel and the change line a'-a"" between the heel and the sole and the narrowing line d-d' in the heel are formed.
  • the narrowing line 11-11 may, instead of runningat a right angle to the change line a'a"" in the manner of a pocket heel, also run at an acute angle or otherwise to this change line in the manner of the French narrowing.
  • Fig. 2 shows the position of the loops of a portion of the stocking according to Fig. 1. For the sake of clearness a great gauge has been assumed. In practice, of course, the number of loops is much greater.
  • a stocking made in a single operation on a flat knitting machine in which the upper part of the heel portions comprises loop wales progressively and simultaneously formed at the inside and outside with the instep loops placed in suspense, the number of said loop wales being progressively decreased at outside and inside in the lower heel portion.
