<p>To produce webs of varying width without changing the diameter of the knitting cylinder a tube of fabric 1 is knitted with a strip 56 containing only the basic knitted fabric. This strip is cut away along the lines 58 to leave the web of required width. To form the strip a group of adjacent needles consisting of a variable number of needles, according to the width required, has no fibres fed to it at any of the combing-in points and the feed of fibres to the combing-in points is interrupted during the passage of this group of needles. <IMAGE></p> |
