3 Claims. 1
My invention relates to ladies stockings of the type which have a seam at the back of the leg.
Oneobject of the invention is to produce an improved stocking of the type set forth.
When a stocking is seamed with a thread of the same color as the stocking, the stocking will harmonize with, and be usable with clothes of one color, or at best, with clothes of one or two additional colors. When the stocking is seamed with a thread having a color different from the color of the stocking, the range of colors of clothes with which such stocking can be worm is correspondingly increased. But in both of these cases, the user has no choice in the matter for the reason that if the stocking and the seam are both brown, or if the stocking is brown and the seam is black, the user of the stocking is still limited to the color brown or to the combination of black and brown.
It is therefore a further object of my invention to produce a stocking construction wherein, within certain limits, the user of the stocking can select the color, or combination of colors, for any given occasion and wherein the same stocking may be worn with a seam of one color on one occasion and with a seam of a different color on some subsequent occasion or occasions.
More specifically, a further object of the invention is to produce a stocking having one or more auxiliary pull seams superimposed on the regular seam of the stocking with one or more of said seams of a color different from the color of the stocking itself.
These and other objects are attained by my invention as set forth in the following specification and shown in the accompanying drawings in which:
Fig. l is a rear elevational view of a stocking embodying my invention;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged, fragmentary rear elevational view of the stocking of Fig. 1 showing the manner in which one auxiliary pull seam is superimposed on the regular seam of the stocking.
Fig. 3 is similar to Fig. 2 except that it shows the manner in which two auxiliary pull seams are superimposed over the regular seam of the stock- Fig. 4 is a fragmentary rear elevational view showing the manner in which an auxiliary pull seam may be removed.
Fig. 5 is a side elevational view of a stocking in which the principle of the invention is used in the production of ornamental efiects such as a clock or the like.
Fig. 6 is a line drawing, on an enlarged scale dinerent Irom the color of the stocxmg itself. I
This seam 1s hereinafter relerred to as the regular or ordinary seam. The structure 01 the stoching, and of the regular seam, and the manner in whichthey are produced may be conventional and need not be now described it being sumclent to say the seam It may be of the same color as, or of a color dinerent Irom the color of the stocking itself.
To carry out my invention as illustrated in Fig. 2, I superimpose an auxiliary sealn 12 over the regular seam m. In order why to cover the regular seam us, the scam l: is Iolmed by using two yarns 14' and in which are or the same color but the color 01 which 1s dmerent Irom the color of the stocking and or the color or the regular seam Ill. The seam I2 is in the nature or a pull seam that is, it may be removed without in any way ali'ecting the regular seam or the adjacent SllOCK- ing fabric. The auxiliary pull seam I2 is made by means of a machine which is available at Union Special Machine Co. of, 1316 Arch Street, Philadelphia, Pa, and which is known as Model 4300. It 13 therefore thought unnecessary to lllustrate or describe the formation or the auxiliary seam l2.
A stocking thus formed will have the regular seam Ill and the pull seam l2 which completely covers the regular seam. If it is assumed that the stockin is brown, that the regular seam is of the same color, and that the auxiliary seam I2 is black, then the stocking may be worn with the auxiliary black seam or the black seam may be removed and the stocking worn with the brown seam. Alternately, the regular seam may be of a color different from the color of the stocking and, in that case, the wearer can use the stocking with a wider range of color of clothes than when the regular seam is of the same color as the stocking.
If it is desired to superimpose a second pull seam I8 over the first pull seam I2, the stocking is subjected to a third seaming operation with yarns 20, 22 and 24 the color of which is different from the color of the seams l0 and I2 and,
preferably, also different from the color of the stocking.
It will be noted that the second pull seam I8 is made of three yarns of the same color so as to make sure that auxiliary seam I2 is adequately covered. To remove the seam [8 or the seam E2, the user locates the ends of the yarns 2B, 22 and 24, or the ends of the yarns l4 and I6, as the case may be, and pulls in the manner and direction shown in Fig; 4;
While I have shown the superimposition of two auxiliary pull seams l2 and I8, it will be understood that additional seams can be superimposed if so desired. Also, while I have shown the invention as applied to full fashioned stock ings, it is obvious that the invention is equally applicable to tubular stockings, which can, and sometimes are, provided witli'a mock seam to simulate the appearance of full fashioned stockings.
o produce an orhamentalefieeta ya n 2. f he i ed co a tin color is ih reduees to fo m a cloc which s superi posed 0. th iehr e of a stocking formed of yarn 30, as shown in Figs. 5 and6. If it is desired to superimpose a second clock over the first on e, asecond yarn 32 of the es red contrasting ch e i ad d shown in Fig. 7. It will be und erstood that the second clock is of theidentical configuration as the s ck so tha the second .el p y covers thenrst clock wher b e 9111i! clock or othervisible ornamentation will be the e m s or he one le t-term A stocking made according to Fig. 6 can be Worn with h ,eehht has v dld desk or t clock. w i is made o 2 1 s fhehe m he m ve t ave the e hties h itseheihhl or plain form. The same is true of the structure of Fig. 7 in which one or both clocks may be removed. By this arrangement, a brown stocking provided a black'c lockpr' black clock and a'red clock may" be used with ensembles which harmonize with bmwaywmi black'or with red, by merely retaining orby removing one or both of the docks, "depending on Whether the stocking is made according'to Fig.6 or according toFigJ'I."
If desired, the auxiliary seam or seams, and the clock, or clocks maybe made of a yarn treated with luminescent material of the type which stands out and'is' especially visible and noticable at night or in the daytime. Such luminescent, or radiant yarn is now available on the market and may be purchased from Aberfoyle Mfg. Co. of Chester, Pa., or from Aberfoyles ofiice at 123 S. Broad Street, Philadelphia, Pa. It is therefore'unnecessary to describe the manner in which luminescent yarn is produced and it is sufiicient to point out that my invention includes the use of luminescent yarn for forming the auxiliary pull seams l0 and 12 or the pull stitch clock of Fig. 6, or the pull stitch clocks of Fig. '7.
The seams of Figs. 2 and 3, the clocks of Figs. 5, 6 and '7, or any other pull seam decoration selected, may be applied to the stocking in the griege by using pre-dyed yarns which will resist the finishing operations to which the stocking is subjected, or such seams, clocks, or other decorations may be applied, to the stocking after the stocking has been finished. In practice, it is considered more advantageous to use pre-dyed .yarns and to incorporate the seams, clocks or other decorations in the stocking prior to the finishing operations.
In Figs. 6 and 7 I have diagrammatically illustrated the superimposition of the clocks formed by yarns28 and 32 upon each other and upon the conventional fabric but I did not show in detail the formationof the pull stitch used in forming the clocks because such pull stitches are well known in the art and can be formed bya machine known as Model 1l0Wl'0- which is made and sold'by the SirigerSeWing Machine Co. In other words, the invention resides in superimposing one or more clocks formed of pull stitches over eachother and over the regular stocking fabric, such clocks being: of the same or of difierent colorsregardless of how the stitches are formed or by what machine they may be formed. Z
What I claim is:
1. As an article of manufacture, a stockingand a plurality of pull-stitch decorations of identical configuration superimposed on each other and on the same portion of the stocking.
2. The article defined in claim 1 in which said decorations are formed of yarns of different colors.
3. The article defined in claim 1 in which said decorations are in the nature of a plurality of seams of difierent colors superimposed on the regular seam of a full fashioned stocking.
