which are knit Without forming floats of the embroidery yarn which extend the full width of the and showing the arrangement of the loops at different parts of the stocking, the View showing the fabric as laid open after the .stocking has been cut down the front; and
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary view similar to Fig. 2 and showing the manner of changing embroidery yarns.
Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 2 illustrating a modication of a part of the construction shown in that figure in which separate embroidery yarns are used at opposite sides of an open embroidery pattern.
As shown in the drawings, the stocking is knit from top to toe and the knitting of the leg portion A may proceed in the usual way by round and round knitting but before the knitting of the embroidery stripes B is started, a change is made to reciprocating knitting. For the reciprocating knitting the machine is given a throw suiiicient 'to cause knitting on the entire circle of the needles and an overlap of a couple of needles so as to provide a suture or seam A at the back of the stocking. If desired, the reciprocating knitting may extend from the top of the stocking so as to provide a uniform structure throughout the length of the leg. y
At the course where the clocking or embroidered stripe B begins, the embroidery yarn is fed to the the high splice C; reinforcing yarn being fed to the needles of the high splice portion C' and --the knitting continued until the heel H is reached.
In knitting the ankle C, high splice C and the instep D by the split foot method sutures D are `5 formed Kat opposite sides of the stocking in place of the .single suture A' at the back of the stocking. The heel H is knit by reciprocating knitting upon a portion of thevneedles in the usual Way, the heel illustrated in the drawings being the heel shown in the reissued patent to Scott No. 16,795 of November 22, 1927. When. the heel H is completed, split foot knitting is resumed to continue the instep D and sole S.
As shown in Fig. 1, the embroidery yarns are fed during the reciprocating knitting for the leg and split foot reciprocating knitting until the embroidered patterns'extend the desired distance onto the foot. After completing the embroidered stripes the embroidery yarns .are not fed to the needles and the knitting of the instep and sole continues by split foot knitting, or if desired, a change can be made to circular knitting after completing the embroidered stripes. Upon completion of the instep D and sole S a seamless toe 25 pocket T is knit and the stocking is completed by looping the toe pocket to the body of the stocking in the usual way. It will be apparent that reinforcing yarn may be fed to the needles to form the high splice C while the reciprocating knitting is continued so that the suture A' may 4be extended to the top of the heel I-I if desired. In this case the heel H is then formed and the split foot knitting started after completion of the heel for the knitting of the remainder of the instep D and the sole S.
In Fig. 2, in which the fabric is shown with the first knit courses at the bottom, the lower portion of the drawings shows the'fabric of the area X and the upper portion of the drawings shows the fabric of the area Y of Fig. 1, the main or body yarn l0, at the time of the feeding of the embroidery yarn, is knit by reciprocating knitting and is interlooped at the end of each course to form the suture A' extending along the back of 45 the stocking. Upon the feeding of the em` broidery yarns Il and Il the knittingof the main yarn lcontinues as previously and the embroidery yarns are fed in the same way as the body yarn and for the necessary .number of 50 needles or wales in each course to give the desired patterns. Each embroidery yarn, it will be noted, is knit in one direction in one course and in the reverse direction in the following Acourse and is fed to an embroidered pattern on but one side of the stocking. The upper end of each embroidered stripe comprises a diamond, the center portion of which is not of the same color as the border, the embroidery yarns II and Il 'being floated across the unwrapped needles as at I2 and I2. These floats are, as a rule, very short and not objectionable but they may be avoided `by feeding of second embroidery yarns for each used in knitting the other sides of the diamond. y
The additional yarn II" is taken out upon the completion of the diamond and the embroidery pattern continued with the embroidery yarn II only. The number of needles wrapped is increased and decreased in the usual way in order to give the desired shape to the pattern and as shown in the upper portion of Fig. 2 the pattern need not be symmetrical. If desired another embroidery yarn I5, preferably of a dierent color, may be fed to the needles in the body of the pattern left unwrapped by the yarns II and I I' thus forming a pattern having a border of embroidery yarn of one color and a center of embroidery yarn oi.' another color. It will be understood that the patterns shown in the drawings are selected for the purpose of illustration only and that applicants invention is not limited to the particular patterns shown.
It is not necessary that the one embroidery yarn be used throughout a pattern for, as shown in Fig. 3, the feeding of an embroidery yarn II of one color may be stopped and the feeding of an embroidery yarn Il of another color started. In each case it will be noted no floats of embroidery yarns extend across the stocking between the marginal wales of a pattern' and that the only oats which are produced when knitting by the method described are the short oats formed when an intermediate needle in a pattern is not wrapped and the oats extending length- Wise of thev stockings between parts of a broken pattern or when yarns are changed in a pattern.
What is claimed isz- 1. A tubular knit stocking having a split seam suture at the back thereof for a portion of the leg above the high splice and at each side in the part of the stocking below said leg portion and embroidery patterns knit in successive lcourses extending into both split seam suture regions.
2. A tubular knit stocking having a single split seam suture extending for a portion of the leg and oppositelyA disposed split seam sutures extending for the remainder of the leg portion and for the foot portion and an embroidery pattern comprising yarn knit in successive courses of the fabric of both leg and foot portions.
