Method for manufacturing knit hat

Abstract

A method for manufacturing knit hats includes primarily adding a textile fiber (more than 50%) and a polyurethane elastic fiber into a same feeder of knitting machine (flat knitting machine) to weave into a yarn which forms a hat felt that is larger than a preset size. Next, the hat felt is heated and steamed by vapor or other heat sources at 50° C.-80° C. for 1-15 seconds, so as to shrink it to the preset size. Finally, the knit hat is formed by sewing and finishing. According to the aforementioned method, as the knit hat is added with the polyurethane elastic fiber, it can be quickly shrunk to be shaped after being blown and steamed through the vapor or other heat sources; therefore the knit hat formed can have a larger flexibility in the range of sizes to meet the requirements of users with different head circumferences.

1 . A method for manufacturing knit hats comprising: 
 (a) adding a textile fiber (more than 50%) and a polyurethane elastic fiber (less than 50%) into a same feeder of knitting machine to weave into a yarn;    (b) weaving the yarn into a hat felt with a larger size than the preset size;    (c) blowing and steaming the hat felt with vapor or other hot sources at 50° C.-80° C. for 1-15 seconds, so as to make it shrink into the desired size;    (d) sewing and finishing the shrunk hat felt to form a knit hat.
