Two special knitting machine techniques augment each other for the garments made by Seldom, the knitwear specialist based in the Westerwald region: the seamless-technology by which each garment is assembled completely without seams and the plating technique in which two thread systems are combined, one of which partially covers the other. When knitting with two yarns of different colours, one colour gets the lead on one side, the second on the other side, but both colours liaise with each other resulting in a mottled colour effect.
