ABSTRACT:
A double cylinder circular knitting machine for forming articles of terry fabric, comprises, in one of the cylinders (3), a ring of arcuate terry sinkers (24) each controlled by a butt (24A) so that it carries out a reciprocating angular sliding movement in an arcuate seat (22) in the end of the cylinder (3), and a loop withdrawal ring (26) for retaining the loop during the withdrawal of the end of the sinker (24) from the loop. The working end of the sinker (24) is rotated before its forward movement, so as to move it away from the loop withdrawal ring (26), and enables it to pass over the loop just formed on the previous course, the sinker (24) then being rotated in the reverse direction for forming the next loop. This arrangement permits loops to be formed in each course of the fabric.
