STOCKING ATTACHMENT.
maaoia.
To all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, JACOB SAMUELs, a citizenof the UnitedStates, and a resident of. the city of New York, borough of the Among the objects of the invention is to simplify and improve the reinforcing devices for the upper end of the stocking for cooperation with the hose supporter, having reference particularly to theneatness of ap pearance and the provision of ample strength without detracting in any manner fromthe, circumferential elasticity of the stocking. 1
The foregoingand other. objects of the in-.
vention will hereinafter be more fully described and claimed andillustrated in the drawings forming a part-of this specification in which like characters-- of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views, and in which Figure 1 is aperspective view of the upper end of a stocking having my improvement formed therein; and Fig. 2 is a sectional detail on the line 22 of Fig.1. Referring more particularly to thedrawings .I show, by way of illustration of a preferred adaptation of this improvement,
stocking 10 having a'hem 11 at. its upper end. The hem, as usual, is formed by fold- 40 ving over a portion of' the stockingleg and securing the edge thereof by any suitablemanner, andthe material of which the stocking is made may be modified irrespective of the speci fic improvement but comprises, as
usual, a flexible fabric material or one which is adapted to stretch circumferentially. Since stockings are ordinarily supported by metallic attachments which interlock in various ways with the hem or upper end portion of. the stocking, it has become necessary, or at least essential, that reinforcement means of some character he used in connection with the stocking to prevent pulling, tearing, or running of. the stocking due to the strain thereon of the supporters.

the necessary reinforcements, but I have ous means have been proposed to provide found that practically all of these provisions, while 'more or less answering the de'- niand for strength or protection of the stockmg, are unsatisfactory, either because they are unsightly orrbecause they interfere to a considerable extent with the elasticity of the stocking circumferentially. In other words,
it is necessary in a satisfactory attachment of'this nature for-the connection between the reinforcement and the stocking to be firm andstrong vertically, and for the connection between the reinforcement and the stocking ,To meet the requirements above indicated,
I provide a short piece of tape 12 or other tough, flexible and nonelastic material which I introduce within the hem of the stocking or between the two plies of material forming the hem, as indicated best in Fig. 2. This reinforcement, which may be referred to for simplicity hereinafter as tape, may be of any suitable length, but is shown herein as being substantially equal to the vertical width of the hem and may be of a width of about one-half inch, more or less, in practice. Stockings being commonly manufactured in flat form, the operation is begun at the toe, and when it reaches a distance far enough to form the hem, the hem is turned down and secured alongits edge to the body of the stocking while yet in flat form. Subsequently the stocking .is formed into tubular form with the folded portion of the h'emon the inside. In order to manufacture these stockings I introduce the short pieces of tape' into the hem between the two plies thereof after the hemis formed, butjwhile the stocking is still flat, such tape pieces being introduced at the ends ofthe hem and passed as far along the hem as desired. The tape 12 is secured in place within the hem by a single vertical row' of. stitches 13 extending from oneend of the tape to the other along its middle portion. The side.edges of the tape arenot secured by any means to the stocking, but simply lie in position flatly between the two portions of the hem, being held in such position by the stitches 13 and the stocking members. I have found in practice that there is no tendency for this tape other form than that indicated; wThe to curl 'up or pull or otherwise assume any The holes let are formed preferably through the entire hem and the tape, and the edges thereof are preferably Worked'through all three of the parts, the buttonhole Working constituting further strengthening 'means for the central part of the tape attachment.
The structure herein described including a piece of tape for the reinforcement makes it possible to form a hole 14 of'considerable width, if desired, for the easy admission of the stocking supporter. The working of the buttonhole through both plies of the hem and through the uncut portionof the tape makes a strong attachment and does not interfere with the circumferential elasticity of the stocking top.
While I indicate in the drawings a stocking having but one reinforcement tape, it Willbe obvious that any number may be employed in.the same stocking, and hence I do not Wish to be limited in this or any other particular as to the details of the'de-y hem plies in t vice except as may be required by the state of the art. v
