Single-needle socks are referred to as Luokou for short. Luokou has a relatively prominent suture, while the front and back sides of double-needle socks are the same, the seam is relatively flat and not prominent, and it is more comfortable to wear.


There is only one barrel for a single needle, and two barrels for a double needle. The machine looks like a single barrel is reversed on the barrel of a single needle. The difference between the products produced by the two machines is that the single barrel cuff is double-layered and used for weaving plain weave and loop. The cuff of the double-cylinder socks is a single layer, and the double-cylinder is used to weave the pattern with a concave and convex feeling.


1. The socks machine is divided into single needle cylinder and double needle cylinder. Of course, socks are also divided into single needle and double needle.


2. Recognition method: turn the sock over and look at the sock tube. If it is the same as the front of the sock, it is a double needle. If it is different, there is a tie line, which is a single needle socks.


3. The number of needles of the socks machine is the number of needles of socks.


4. 21 and 32 refer to the thickness of cotton yarn or other plant fibers. The larger the number, the thinner the thread. If it is chemical fiber, it is represented by D. The larger the number, the thicker the thread.


Two-way three-color and three-way three-color are also fully computerized, can do up and down needles, multi-color jacquard and simple horizontal stripes

Many European and American socks have higher quality requirements and are designated to Made with double needles!
