ABSTRACT:
Thread used in double-cylinder circular knitting machines is cut by locating a stationary cutting knife near a space between the cylinders. A saw having perpendicularly arranged teeth is positioned on an outer ring at the top of one of the cylinders. Thread guides move the thread from a pneumatic nozzle to the teeth of the saw. The saw engages the thread and moves the thread for knitting to needles on the cylinder. The saw continues to move the thread from the nozzle to the knife in order to be severed. After severing, the guide is returned and the thread engaged between the needles is disengaged and taken by the saw to the knife to be cut and taken in by the nozzle.
