ABSTRACT:
A method for manufacturing panty hose or like fabrics including two leg portions and a panty portion integral therewith, the leg portions being knitted as tubular portions by continuous rotary motion of a needle cylinder or needle cylinders of a circular knitting machine and the panty portion being knitted by reciprocatory motion. Knitting of the panty portion included inactivation of a number of needles, knitting a first part of constant width formed by partial courses defining selvedge edges at their ends, knitting a central part by firstly narrowing and widening like a heel and then newly narrowing and widening, and knitting a second part of constant width formed by partial courses defining selvedge edges at their ends. The fabric is then cut to define the waist opening and the two parts of constant width are sewn together along the corresponding selvedge edges. The machine for carrying out this method comprises means for stretching the fabric during manufacturing of the panty portion, these means including a flexible tubular element at the end of a fabric guide arranged within the needle cylinder through which the fabric is taken up and a suction duct opening in the guide in a position between the flexible tubular element and the needle working region. Suction through the suction duct causes the tubular element to squeeze about the fabric, thus increasing the stretching action on the fabric portion which is knitted.
