ABSTRACT:
Stitch loops are securely pressed down and retained. The pressing and retaining position of the loop presser is properly adjusted according to the tension in the stitch loops. The loop presser 460 of a flat knitting machine is stored in a groove 445 of an auxiliary bed, and the loop retainer 462 is energized downward by an arm 465 and a cam 422. The loop retainer is swung downward by the cam 422 when it is advanced, and the retainer is swung back to the initial position when it is retracted. The top end of the loop retainer 462 is made to move forward to and over the opposing needle bed.
