Row counter for knitting instrument

摘要

The invention relates to a row counter for a manual knitting instrument, the counter comprising essentially two separable elements; the first element comprises a slotted conical portion which defines an opening at the apex of the conical portion through which the shank of the knitting instrument is passed, the conical portion terminating at its opposite end in a first connector part. The second element comprises a body portion defining a second connector part and a cap containing the counting mechanism, the second connector part being adapted to be nested within the first connector part after the first part is fitted on the knitting instrument, the second element including an operating knob for actuating the counting mechanism.
