ABSTRACT:
A circular knitting machine has a rotating needle cylinder provided with cylinder needles disposed about the periphery of the cylinder and a plurality of yarn feeding stations at least some of which are provided with striping boxes. Each striping box has a plurality of yarn-holding members individually activatable for causing yarn from different ones of the yarn-holding members of the striping box to be fed to needles travelling past the striping box. According to the novel method, more than one of the yarn-holding members of the striping box of at least one of the feeding stations are kept simultaneously activated during at least part of a rotation of the needle cylinder so that each of at least some of the needles being fed yarn at such station during such part of a rotation will receive yarn from each of the more than one activated yarn-holding members.
