The principal object of my invention is to produce circular knit ribbed fabric having an artistic design interknit therewith".
vThe design produced, in laccordance with the principles of my invention, iscapable of practically unlimited variation as to pattern and color.
The machine employed in producing my improved fabric is a circular rib knitting machine of special design and. construction, forming the subject of a separate applica tion for patent Serial No. 181,507, filed April 6, 1927 which is an improvement over my l Aprior nited States Patent No. 1,624,7 92, dated April 12, 1927.
My invention is not limited to any particular class of goods but may be adapted to any article of manufacture which can be directly chine, including hosiery, neck wear, gloves, or any straight tubing which maybe split or cut into shapes of any desired form. In the accompanying drawing:
the simplest forms of design, utilizing a series of horizontal stripes and a series of in,-
terrupted vertical stripes as applied to a'A folded top of a stocking; and i Fig. 2 illustrates diagrammatically the si? illustrated in Fig. 1.
Y igs. 3 to inclusiveare diagrams of a few of the designs I may employ in my vimlone color toanother andI also prefer to use the knotting method of yarn splice in order to obtain a clean cut line of Idemarcation between adjacent'stripes.-
vThe vertical stripes A-that the. horizontal stripes, either in complete,
interrupted or partial form' mayv be iproj or indirectly produced on the above type ma- Fig. 1 illustrates diagrammatically one of process of producing the simple formof de- Figfz of the drawing, the
I prefer to form by' the plating method andit will be lobvious 3, 4 and 5 to themost complicated art designs, by the proper color selection and duced by this method also, on a suitably colored foundation.
As shown in Fig. 2 the uppermost course of stitches 1 and a portion of the neXtoloWer adjacent course are of one color (blue) indicated at 4, and being knotted as at 5 to a .different colored thread (red) indicated at 6. The thread 6 `in turn is knotted at 7 toa thread of a third different color (green) indicated at 8, `and this thread is Isubsequently knotted at 9 to another Idifferently colore or a white thread as indicated at 10. i There is no regular sequence of colors necessary, the desired color for the particular portion of the design at hand being selected from the series and run to the knitting needles. v The vertical stripes, as above stated, are
plated on the stitches forming the cylinder Wales 2, 2 by threads of any desired color or colors and may run the entire length of the respective Wale as indicated at 11, ll, or they may be interrupted as indicated at 12 for the purpose of forming a design, the thread between the plated stitches being permitted to float on the inside face of the fabric as indicated at 13.` 4 A From the above description, which covers the simpler adaptations of my invention it will be apparent that I may form 4a foundation fabric of a single color or of any desired v multi-colored striped variations and in addition thereto I may interpose upon the outside wales of such foundation fabric any vdesired variety of vertical stripes in the form of plated stitches. I
I have chosen the circular ribbed fabric as a foundation for` reason 'of its elasticity and have selectedthe outside Wales thereof to support the plated design, running the plating threads walewise of the fabric, in
order that this elastic quality of the fabric can be maintained. o
From the simpler form of the invention shown in Figs. 1 and 2 and described hereinabove the formation of patterned designs may be developed through the slightly comv plicate'd4 symmetrical designs shown 1n Figs.
proper manipulation of the foundation threads in combination with the roperly selected colored plating threads an their proper manipulation.
In some instances the platin threads, of the various colors employed, eac extend parallel with a certain single and predetermined Wale 2, but in designs of the tapestry class which are es ecially adapt-able to highgrade neck Wear, t e plating threads are not each confined to any single Wale but may be moved from one Wale to another as required in forming such designs, this'class of goods is produced on a machine of the above mentione the body ,of the specification in Which the` above descriptions appear, formulate designs type but of a more complicated nature, which is to form the basis of another applicationA for patent. Ifdesired each and every stitch of each and every outside Wale. may have superposed thereon a plating thread of desired color which would entirely cover the face of the foundation fabric.
Having clearly illustrated various forms of designs which may be produced on my improved fabric and having clearly described themanner in which they are produced, I'
do not intend that the scope of the invention be limited to the designs `shown as anyone familiar with the art can upon reference to of their own pattern Without departing from the features of my invention. What I claim is: 1. A new article of manufacture comprising tubular knit ribbed fabric having inside and outside Wales and a design formed on the said outside wales and composed of a plurality of dierent independent threads respectively plated on successive immediately adjacent outside Wales.
2. A new article of manufacture comprising tubular knit ribbed fabric `having inside and outside Wales and a design formed on the -said outside Wales and composed of a plu- .rality of different-independent threads respectively plated on successive immediately adjacent outside wales, said desi havlng yan outline disposed at an angle with respect to said Wales.
A 3. A new article of manufacture comprising tubularknit ribbed fabric havin inside and outside Wales and al design forme on the said outside wales and composed of a plurality of different independent threads respectively plated on successiveimmediately adj acent outside Wales, said design having an outline of which a portion is disposed at an angle with respect to said wales.
4. A new article of manufacture comprising tubular knit ribbed fabric having inside and outside wales and adesign formed on the said outside wales and composed of a plurality of different independent threads respectively plated on successive immediately adjacent outside Wales, said design having an outline of which a portion is disposed at an angle with respect to said Wales, and another portion is disposed parallel to said wales. I
5. vA new articleof manufacturecomprising tubular knit ribbed fabric havin inside and outside Wales and a design forme on the said outside wales and com osed of a plurality of different indepen ent threads respectively plated on successive immediately adjacent outside wales, said design having an outline of which a portion is disposed at an angle with respect to said wales, and another portion is perpendicular to said wales..
6. A new article of manufacture comprising tubular knit ribbed fabric having inside andloutside Wales and a'design formed on the saidI outside wales and composed of a plurality of different independent threads respectively plated on successive immediately adjacent outside wales, said design having an outline of which a portion is disposed' at an angle'with respect to said Wales,l another portion is disposed parallel to sald Wales, and another portion is disposed perpendicular to said Wales. l
7. vA new article'of manufacture, comprising a tubular knit ribbed fabric formed of a continuous foundation thread Which is composed of a plurality of individual lengths of differently colored threads knotted together end to end in selective succession and knitted into 'a plurality of courses of foundation .stitches therebyforming the said tubular knit ribbed fabric, said fabric havingy inside and outside wales, said fabric also having a design depicted on its outer face, said desi being formed in part by 'a plurality of different independent threads respectively vplated on successive immediately adjacent differently colored threads knotted together end to end in selective succession and knitted into a plurality of courses of' foundation stitches thereby forming the said tubular knit ribbed fabric, said fabric having inside and outside Wales, said fabric also having a design depicted on its outer face said design being formed in part by a plurality of differ- -ent independent threads respectively plated on successive immediately adjacent outside wales, and in part by the differently colored courses of stitches of the foundation fabric, the lsaid plating threads being adapted in l color position to coordinate with the adosition to coordinate with Ano v with respect to said outside wales.
