Abstract

A tubular fabric article is gripped at either end on gripping rings (24) which can be rotated and moved axially with respect to a fixed position D-D. A fixed needle mechanism (30) extends within the tubular article. A needle (36) is oscillated between a retracted and extended position and cooperates with a hook and bobbin mechanism to form stitches.
