Description
March 10, 1936. J; QUINN 2,033,647
STOCKING Filed Oct. 17, 1951 tfofin E Quinn,
Patented Mar. 10, 1936 QIP'UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
The object of this invention is to devise a novel stocking in which the knitting is effected in such a manner as to prevent runs being formed in the stocking. This invention relates more particularly to the formation of a novel construction and arrangement of anti-ravel barriers in the welt and at-the toe, and also, if desired, below the point at which the welt is turned in case a turned welt is employed.
A further object of the invention is to devise a novel construction of welt which does not need to be turned, thereby forming a single welt having alternating portions of anti-ravel construction and picot stitches.
With the above and other objects in view, as will hereinafter more clearly appear, my invention comprehends a novel stocking provided with a novel construction and arrangement of antiravel barriers.
It further comprehends a novel stocking having a portion of the welt or the entire welt formed of plain and lace stitches so that a plurality of courses are provided in which beneath a block of plain stitching is located a block of lace stitching.
It further comprehends a novel stocking having a plurality of courses of the character herein set forth in the body portion of the stocking and also at the place where the toe and foot are connected.
It further comprehends a novel stocking wherein the welt is formed of alternate portions of plain and lace stitches throughout a desired number of courses, the different courses of such construction being separated by a picot stitch so as to provide for the proper folding of stockings having different lengths of legs.
Other novel features of construction and advantage will hereinafter more clearly appear in the detailed description and the appended claim. For the purpose of illustrating the invention, I have shown in the accompanying drawing a typical embodiment of it, which, in practice, will give satisfactory and reliable results. It is, however, to be understood that t. e various instrumentalities of which my inve .tion consists can be variously arranged and orMnized and my invention is not limited to the exact arrangement and organization of these instrumentalities as herein set forth.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a stocking embodying my invention. Figure 2 is a detail view, showing more clearly, the manner in which the plain knitting and lace knitting alternates in the diflerent courses.
Figure 3 is a side elevation of a portion ofa stocking showing more particularly, a single welt in which the courses containing the plain and lace knitting are separated by a picot stitch.
Similar numerals of reference indicate cor- 5 responding parts.
Referring to the drawing:
l designates a stocking embodying my invention, which, as shown in Figure 1, is provided with a turned welt 2. This welt at its .top is 10 provided with a picot stitch 3. The welt portion 2, in Figure 1, is formed of alternate portions of plain and lace stitching, the plain stitching being indicated by 4 and the lace stitching being indicated by 5. I 1
The lace portion and the plain portion of the stitches are arranged in alternate blocks with a block of plain stitching below and in alignment with a block of lace stitching. This may continue down to the welt line 6 from which a plain knitting I is employed, and at a desired point below the welt two courses 8;are provided in which the plain knitting and the lace knitting alternates in each course with the plain knitting in one course in alignment with the lace knitting 25 of another course. The lace knitting may be produced in any desired or conventional manner of making stitches and I have shown it as being formed, in Figure 2, by lifting the stitch from one needle and transferring it to the next needle so that an open stitch is produced. It will of course be understood that the main body yarn may be transferred from one or more needles instead of a single needle as illustrated.
In order to form an anti-ravel barrier at the 5 toe, the two courses connecting the toe and foot, of the stocking are formed as shown at 9, each of these courses consisting of plain knitting and lace knitting alternately arranged in a course and with the plain knitting of one block in alignment with the lace knitting of the next block.
Referring now moreparticularly to Figure 3, my present invention is especially adapted to' be employed in stockings in which the welt is not turned or, in other words, in stockings having a single welt. This construction is shown in Figure 3, wherein the upper edge of the welt is formed by a line of picot stitching l0. Next, comes a course ll having the plain knitting and lace knitting alternately arranged. Then, comes the course 12 in which the plain knitting and lace knitting is alternately arranged but the portions of plain knitting are beneath the portions of lace knitting in the course II. -The same holds true of the course l3. Then comes an anti-ravel course I 4 of laterally transferred loops. Then progressively, the courses I5, l6 and I1, arranged similar to the courses II, I2 and I3. Then comes an anti-ravel course 18 of laterally transferred loops, after which is progressively formed the courses I9, 20 and 2|, each of which consists of alternate portions of plain knitting and lace knitting. Then comes an anti-ravel course 22 of laterally transferred loops and from this on, the leg portion of the stocking 23 is formed in any desired or conventional manner.
It will be apparent that in accordance with this invention no run can take place in the welt which will extend into the leg portion of the stocking and if a run starts in the plain knitting 1 it will be stopped by the anti-ravel barrier 8. In a similar manner it a run starts in the toe it will be stopped by the anti-ravel barrier 9.
My present invention is directed to a fullfashioned stocking which is produced on a straight knitting machine.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:--
In a stocking, a welt including a plurality of spaced anti-ravel courses of laterally transferred loops defining therebetween bands each of which is composed of a number of interlooped courses of stitches, each said course including alternately arranged groups of plain and lace stitches, said plain and lace stitches being arranged in groups 01' staggered blocks extending over the entire area of each of the bands aforesaid.
