A circular sliver knitting machine having a manifold for controlling multidirectional airflow. The manifold includes a first and a second air nozzle unit for directing air onto the plurality of needles from radially opposed sides. The manifold includes a cross bar having attachment bars for attaching the cross bar to the frame of a circular sliver knitting machine. The cross bar has a first cross bar aperture located lo therein so as to receive air from an air supply unit. A cover is secured to the cross bar forming a seal therebetween, such that the cover cooperates with the cross bar to form a first plenum and a second plenum therebetween. The cover has a cover aperture for receiving air from the air supply unit. The cross bar also has a first and a second adjustable valve for controlling the flow of air from the air supply unit to each of the first and second blowing units.
