Process design and knitting principle of one-piece casual suits based on four-needle-bed flat knitting machine

In order to achieve one-piece knitting of casual suits, the formation of one-piece suits was studied on the basis of the four-needle-bed computerized Shima Seiki flat knitting machine. According to the difference between one-piece suits and ordinary sweaters, the body and collar were selected as research objects, and their process design methods and forming principles were investigated. In the conversion process from tailored suits to one-piece suits, rectangular slip transformation is adopted to transform the process, the body is knitted with partial knitting to form a curved hem, and the retractable stitches are used to form the dividing line. The lapel is knitted with the rear collar strip knitting method that mobilizes the needles while knitting and connecting with the back collar, and the area where the splice exceeds the centerline of the placket is transformed into the interior by a rectangular sliding method. Under the premise of keeping the balance of the front and rear stitches, the precise size control of the front and rear of suit can be realized by means of unequal length and unequal width knitting.
