Summary:A multibed flat knitting machine comprises upper needle beds (2), lower needle beds (1) disposed below the upper needle beds (2), with their heads located adjacent to the heads of the upper needle beds, and knock-over bits (44) positioned in the heads of the upper needle beds so as to slide parallel to the sliding directions of upper needles (38). The knock-over bits (44) are capable of being advanced to a position where loop holders of the knock-over bits are advanced beyond a position corresponding to the position of the needle hooks of the advanced upper needles to support the needle heads of the upper needles (38) of the upper needle beds (2). In a method of knitting with such a machine the knock-over bit (44) is retracted to guide the upper needle (38) from the rising path of a lower needle (23) before the lower needle is raised.
