Three pages from the "Knitting Department" of the trade journal Textiles. The first part covers a warning to American manufacturers about currency exchange rates and imports, citing the closure of Hongkong knitting mills, and a congressional hearing on trademarks and jobber branding in the hosiery trade. The main part is the start of John Chamberlain's "The Manufacture of Knit Goods," which describes automatic hosiery knitting machines in detail, with a line drawing (Fig. 17) and numbered parts. It covers the needle cylinder, sinkers, driving gear, cams, narrowing and widening pickers, yarn changing, splicing, and the timing chain.
