Knitting Technique
- Plush requires two knitting systems. Therefore, a machine with at least three systems is necessary to carry out all the knitting functions as knitting a comb start or rib, or to transfer.
- The cams are mounted in the two systems at the rear center and right, in order to use the front knitting systems for clamping and cutting without restrictions.
- Only the left system can transfer from or to the rear.

Included in a carriage stroke, the process looks like this:
Il faut considérer que les deux chutes dans lesquelles les cames peluche sont intégrées forment une unité.
Cela signifie que si une aiguille est sélectionnée dans la première chute, il faut qu'elle soit aussi sélectionnée dans la deuxième. Il n'est pas possible de sélectionner une autre aiguille dans la deuxième chute, étant donné que le talon d'aiguille ne peut plus entrer dans le canal de la serrure. Ceci entraînerait une casse d'aiguille.
The converted knitting systems cannot use the presser foot.
Create plush pattern on pattern workstation M1 and M1plus
Change the machine properties in the machine explorer before creating a plush pattern. You can only change the properties on an Own machine.
(Path: Tools -> Machine Explorer-> Select Own Machine -> Tab System functions)
- 1
- Activate check box in field Plush active.
- 2
- A message appears and asks you whether the cam box functions for the plush knitting are to be adapted. Confirm this with Ok.
- When generating a pattern, the knitting function Plush is carried out in the knitting systems which have been planned for this.
For generating a plush pattern, you can use the plush modules
(Path: Module -> Module Explorer Database -> Modules -> Stoll -> Standard -> Plush)
The converted knitting systems cannot use the presser foot.
Recommendation
When generating the plush pattern, ensure that an additional knitting row is inserted after each plush row in order to avoid an accumulation of plush loops. This also ensures a reliable casting-off of the plush loops.
