ABSTRACT:
A yarn guiding apparatus for a flat knitting machine in which a pair of opposed needle beds defines a knock over edge area and a center line therebetween. A yarn holding member is arranged between a needle and a sinker mounted on a needle bed. The yarn holding member is moveable relative to the knock over edge area and has an operating face for pushing down a yarn fed from a yarn feeder to the knock over edge area. The operating face is configured for contacting the yarn and for pushing the yarn down toward a needle when the yarn holding member is advanced toward the knock over edge area. The yarn holding member is advanceable to a position in which a portion of the yarn holding member extends beyond the center line defined by the opposing needle beds.
