Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0997563A1] In the circular knitter, for knitting with tucked loop stitches, each sinker (4) is composed of three basic sinkers (7-9), side by side. The center sinker (7) is a conventional knock over sinker. It is flanked by looping sinkers (8,9), each with a projection (10,11) at different levels. In the circular knitter, for knitting with tucked loop stitches, each sinker (4) is composed of three basic sinkers (7-9), side by side. The center sinker (7) is a conventional knock over sinker. It is flanked by looping sinkers (8,9), each with a projection (10,11) at different levels. The sinkers (7-9) are operated independently of each other, according to the pre selected knitting pattern program, to be moved in and out of action. In the working position, they take the colored yarn to form loops of different heights. The ground yarn and the colored patterning yarns are distributed among the needles in a number of successive systems. Each row of knitted stitches is either of a ground jersey or structured yarn or is of a number of colored yarns.
