ABSTRACT:
A compound needle, of which slider and needle body can be moved forward and backward independently of each other, is guided by a cam lock into four routes, knit, tuck, transfer and receiving. As for the slider, the knit route is branched from the tuck route, and branching from the tuck route to the transfer route is made by a movable cam at the center of the cam lock. As for the needle body, the knit route is branched from the tuck route to reach the knit level then joining the tuck route. The transfer route is branched from the knit route and the needle body is retracted to a point between the tuck level and an inactive position, and the receiving route advances the needle body from the center of the cam lock to the tuck level.
