Procedure which can be carried out on circular knitting machines with two needle bars so as to form a panty-hose product or so-called tights with continuous-motion processing.

摘要

A panty-hose product (tights) is processed on a two-needle-bar knitting machine with a continuous rotating motion so as to form two tubular product (15-17) at one and the same time with the two needle bars and with different feeds (A) or descents of yarns, whereas the panty portion is formed with a connecting zone (Cc) cut in the lengthwise direction (T); needles (11-13) of the two needle bars are activated in said connecting zone (Cc) so as to form a structure of ribbed stitching with plain (MD) and purl (MR) stitches next to each other.
