<p>During knitting, the edges are away from each other on account of the contour pattern, but are continuously connected by a single meandering loose thread. On completion of knitting, the loose threads are drawn to bring the edges together. The front and back sections of a knitted garment pref. have contours which are apart when produced on the machine. By introducing a thermoplastic thread at the time of knitting, which is held loosely in the loops of the knit, this is drawn tight when the garment is removed from the machine. ADVANTAGE - The amt. of time consumed in binding the garments is reduced, esp. in respect of matching edges which are patterned.</p> |
