Single-needle socks and socks are referred to as Luokou. The Luokou has a relatively prominent hair stitching thread, while the front and back sides of the double-needle Luokou are the same. The seam is relatively flat and not protruding, making it more comfortable to wear.


There is only one needle barrel for a single needle, and two needle barrels for a double needle. The machine looks like a needle barrel is reversed on the single needle barrel. The difference between the products made by the two machines is that the single needle cylinder is double-layered, which is used for weaving plain weaves and loops. The double-cylinder socks are single-layered, and the double-cylinder is used to weave patterns with unevenness.


1.The hosiery 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 socks in reverse and look at the sock. If it is the same as the front of the socks, it is a double stitch. If it is not the same, there is a tie line, it is a single stitch.

Double-needle jacquard has no thread, and single-needle jacquard has a thread; in terms of the weaving effect and the overall comfort of the socks, the double-needle socks are more comfortable than the single-needle socks. Many European and American socks have higher quality requirements. Double needles!
