To (MZ whom, it viz/ay concern.'
Be it known thatl, Airrrme Knisnr., a citizen of the United States, residing inthe borough ot Brooklyn, in the county oi Kings, city `an-d State ot New dirork,I have invented certain new and useful improve ments in :Pockets for Sweaters, ot 'which tlie'ilollowing is a. speeiiication.
-My invention relates to a new and improved pocket for a sweater .anda method of making the same.
One of the obiects ot my invention is to make af pocket for asweater in which the pocket portion will be knit to the body ,por- 'tion totk the sweater. t
YAnother object Soft my .invention is to provide apocket whichwill have "a reinforced top at Vthe `body of the sweater.
Another object of my inventionis to provide a method orfatlixin-g the-fabric tor the pocket ota sweater, to the body-oit the sweater as part of thefgeneral knittingoperation of forming .the sweater. K v
Other objects ot my invention will zbe set forth4 inthe fol-lowing -fdescription `and .drawings which illustrate a ypreferred embodiment thereof.
Fig. 1 is a rear view showing` alportiony `loops are removed from some ot `the Aneedles of one series to' :theadj-acent needles tot the adjacent series.
Fig. 5 is a diagrammatic perspective view showing one stage ot the knitting operation. y y
Fig. (i is a diagrammatic perspective view showing the next stage in the knitting operation and illustrating,` the removal ot' some ot the loops from some oi' the needles of one series to the .adjacentneedless ot the adjacent series.
Fig. 7 is a top view illustrating the iirst stage in producing the finished and reinw Y ,torced edge in the body oi the sweater.
Figs. S, 9 and lO farediagrammatic top views illustrating` the subsequent stag-es in the formation of the .rein-forcement at the odge ot the pocket.
l1y is a diagrammatic perspective view `showing the connection oit the pocket i portion to the ,knitting needles.
Fig. l2 is a front elevation showing how the sides andbottom ot the pocketv `fabric are connected to the body by stitches.
Y `l-Ieretot'orepockets have been formed in venveaters knitting the sweaterin the ordinary manner, and by then sewing' to the sweater a` separately knit Aand entirely independent piece of fabric,- on 'the front of thefbo'dy of the sweater.
The result was that the pocket oiitenyieldy ed or gave way, especially it heavy objects werecarried in the pocket oit the sweater, and the pocket bulged out at the front oi the sweater, and `produced-an unsightly `etfeet.
According to `my new and improved method a new and. improved pocket construe` tion is 4secured in that the pocket fabric is directly knit to the body of the sweater, ,and
the pocketabric is llocated at the rearV ot the body portion ot'the sweater. 'The edge ot thevpocketin their-ont oi? the sweater is reintorced zand'iinished. l
` Figs. 3 ajnd 4 illustrate ya conventional type ofknitting machine having a front series `of needles N. and asimilar rear lseries of needles N. The needles N vmove between the ordinary guides Gf.` The thread T is ted between the needles by any suitable mechanism so that eachV needle forms a rib of the knitted fabric. The ordinary vparts of the well known :type of knitting` machine yare not `illustrated in detail because VYmy invention is not dependent upon any special construction of knitting machine.
According` to my invention, after the tabric of the body ot the sweater has been knit to the point at which it.r is desired tofform the pocket, then a suitable number of loops are transferred by a hand needle N from -,some of the front series of needles N to lthe ladjacent needles N of the rear series. This ycan be done very simply byopening fthebarbs B of the diront needles and removing' the loops to'the adjacent rear needles-as shown iirFig. G.
The needles whose'loops are thus transferred are the intermediate needles so that,
eleven needles can be thus transferred while for example, the loops of a central ygroup ot is shown in Fig. 5. After eleven loops have been thus transferred" the said loops of the body l are then connected with the usual thread T, used as part of .the knitting operation, by means of a hand needle N having the barb B. For this purpose the thread T is doubled so that the central part of the bight thus formed is engaged by the head of the needle N. This bight is then pulled through a pair of the loops L upon one of the rear needles N as illustrated in Fig. 7. The bight is then pulled to the right until it is directly behind the next pair of loops L and the needle N is then pushed through the next pair of loops L whileV the said bight remains at the rear of the second pair of loops L. The barb B of the needle N is now opened and the thread T is led around the shank of the needle N behind the barb B and then the rest of doubled thread T is led through the eye of the needleV N. The needle N is now pulled rearwardly. The barb B is moved to the closed position when the needle N is pulled through the second pair of loops L, because the loops L have a sufficiently small diameter to'produce this effect, which in itself is well known as part of the ordinary operation of the needles in a knitting machine. ,A second bight is thus formed in thev thread T which is forced through the first bight illustrated upon the shank of the vneedle in Fig. 9 and in Fig. lO so that the first and second pair of loops are-thus connected by the thread T. This operation, which begins with the left hand pair of the eleven pairs of loops is continued until the central group of eleven loops have been thus connected, thereby producing` a finished, connected and reinforced' series of pairs of loops at the point where it is desired to form the edge portion of the pocket.
The eleven pairs of loops forming the finished and reinforced edge of the pocket are now removed from the back group needles, so that the fabric is now held by needles at both sides of this central group, and there are temporarily no loops on the eleven needles constituting this group. In Fig. 1l the series of connected eleven pairs of'loops are omitted, for the sake of clearness.`
The pocket fabric P is now placed between the needles as illustrated in Fig. 11 and the loops thereof are separated so that half of said loops are placed upon the eleven front needles N of said group and they other 'half are placed upon the rear needles. Hence, each of the rear central groupof eleven needles each has one loop thereon and the corresponding front needles ofy the ksaid central group again Vhas one loop thereon. The knitting operation of the machine is then continued in the ordinary manner so as to produce a sweater having a body knit in the ordinary manner together with a pocket portion whose top is connected to the body as' part of the knitting operation. The piece of fabric for forming the pocket is separately knit before it is connected to the needles. I However, the top of the fabric P is so formed is of superior strength and appearance. It will be noted that the portion of the bodyl of the sweater directly above the pocket portion is knit integral wit-h said pocket portion, so that t-he sweater and pocket portion constitute a single piece of knit fabric, said single piece having an integrally knit branch constituting the rear `pocket portion. My invent-ion is applicable to all -knit garments.
I have shown a preferred embodiment of my invention, but it is clear that numerous changes and omissions could be made Without 4departing from its spirit.
I claim: v
1. A knitted sweater or the like comprising a knitted body member having a continuous series of intermediatey loops thereof separated from the other loops thereof, said yseparated loops being connected to form a finished edge," and a rear knitted pocket member comprising a separate single thickness of flat knitted fabric having its upper edge directly knitted to the loops of said body member directly adjacent said yseparated loops to form a connection vhaving the same thickness as the Aportions of said body member directly above and below said connection, the bottom and side edges of said pocket being connected to said front member.
2. In the art of knitting a sweaterl or the like having a body formed of a plurality of series of connected loops, those steps which consist in connecting a plurality of one of the series of loops formed during the knitting of the body of the sweater to the adjacent loops of an adjacent series of said body so as to form a nished edge, and then connecting a flat and separately knitted pocket member which is formed of fabric having a plurality of series of connected loops to the body of said sweater directly adjacent said finished edge by separating the series of loops at the edge of the said pocket member and continuing the knitting operation with the loops of said pocket member to form the aligned portion of the body of the sweater,
While continuing the knittino With the loops of said body lateral to said finished edge.
3. In the art of knitting a sweater oi' the like having a body formed of a plurality of series of Connected loops7 those steps which consist in knitting a portion of tlie body of the swozitei', then connecting; d plurality ol one of the series ot loops of said body formed in the knitting operation to the adjacent 10 Vloops of on adjacent series o1 said body, and
also securing each pair of connected loops to the other pairs of Connected loops, and then continuing the knitting operation of toe body above the connected loops .in oontinuation olf an additional piece of separately knitted fabric, and at the sides of said additional piece.
In testimony whereof I hereunto atti): my signature.
ARTHUR KAISER.
