History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 423830-37 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • The knitting machine was invented in 1589 by William Lee, an English clergyman. The first knitting machine was a hand-operated device that could only produce a flat piece of fabric. In 1864, the first circular knitting machine was invented, which allowed for the production of seamless garments. The first fully automated knitting machine was invented in the 1940s, which revolutionized the industry. In the United States, the knitting machine industry began to flourish in the early 1900s, with the establishment of companies such as the Lamb Knitting Machine Corporation and the Auto Knitter Company. During World War II, the demand for knitted goods increased, and the industry experienced a boom. In the 1960s and 1970s, the industry faced competition from imported knitting machines, which led to the decline of many American knitting machine manufacturers. Today, the knitting machine industry is still evolving, with advancements in technology and the development of new materials.
