METHOD FOR KNITTING A COLLAR OF A GARMENT ON A KNITTING MACHINE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for knitting a collar (1) of a garment on a knitting machine (2), wherein the knitting machine (2) has a first knitting bed (3) and a second knitting bed (4), wherein a plurality of first knitting needles (5) is arranged on the first knitting bed (3) and a plurality of second knitting needles (6) is arranged on the second knitting bed (4), which knitting needles (5, 6) can be individually activated or deactivated by means of a machine control. To improve the folding of the collar even after a long use the proposed method comprises the steps of: a) Producing a first section (I) of the collar (1), wherein the production of the first section (I) takes place by a knitting process in which a number of first knitting needles (5) and a corresponding number of second knitting needles (6) are activated and cooperate to knit the first section (I); b) Producing of a second section (II) of the collar (1) being a folding line of the collar, wherein the production of the second section (II) takes place by a knitting process in which a number of first knitting needles (5) are activated and a corresponding number of second knitting needles (6) are deactivated; c) Producing a third section (III) of the collar (1), wherein the production of the third section (III) takes place by a knitting process in which a number of first knitting needles (5) and a corresponding number of second knitting needles (6) are activated and cooperate to knit the third section (I).
