A pair of needle beds (1) are provided with head portions thereof opposed to each other and a plurality of sinkers (15) are provided in a juxtaposed relationship at the head portions of the needle beds. First and second needles (81F, 81B; 82F, 82B) each having a transfer element are provided for sliding movement between each adjacent pair of sinkers (15). The first and second needles are either provided alternately at an equal distance from each other throughout each needle bed or are individually provided at an equally spaced relationship from each other between the sinkers but such that the distance between adjacent needles positioned on opposite sides of each sinker is different from the distance between first and second needles between the sinkers. <IMAGE>
