First part of an article on how fashioned (shaped-on-the-machine) knitted goods are manufactured, by Karl Aberle of Reutlingen. It compares fashioned articles with garments cut from piece goods and lists the main shaping methods: changing loop form, loose and tight loops, changing loop direction by racking, widening, narrowing and gussets. It covers stitch changes for connected sleeve parts, needle selection on flat and circular machines, rib dial adjustment on hosiery machines, rack stitch and tuck stitches, and widening by adding needles. Five diagrams illustrate sleeve sections, loop structures, racking and carrier-limited widening. The article ends with "To be continued".
