ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a circular knitting machine for making plush fabric. The circular knitting machine has a needle cylinder fitted with knitting needles, a sinker ring fitted with sinkers, wherein the sinkers have edges adapted to handle a ground yarn and a plush yarn, and at least one knitting system. For independent adjustment to the stitch size and the plush yarn loops, a cylinder cam section has an adjustable cam part which serves to adjust the length of the plush yarn loops. A cam part independent therefrom and also adjustable serves to adjust the stitch size. This cam part can be arranged either in the sinker cam or the cylinder cam.
