Disclosed is a method for splitting a collar or a sleeve. Using nylon as a connecting thread guarantees the strength requirement of the connecting thread in a production process of a to-be-split semi-finished product and can dissolve the nylon via a splitting agent to split the collar or the sleeve. In the splitting agent, formic acid can dissolve the nylon and has no adverse effect to the collar and the sleeve; and a fog inhibitor can inhibit volatilization of the formic acid, so that the formic acid is acted on the nylon more effectively thus improving the utilization rate of the formic acid. The splitting agent is employed to directly act on a connecting thread of the collar or the sleeve, thus operation is convenient; and the connecting thread can be dissolved provided that the splitting agent contacts it for 1-2 s, thus splitting efficiency is high.

The invention relates to a collar (11) of a knitted garment, in particular a polo, comprising a first flexible knitted portion (31) comprising a substantially curve shaped outer longitudinal end (312); a second structured stitch rigid knitted portion (32), distinct from the first portion (31) and constituting the collar stand, comprising a substantially curve shaped outer longitudinal end (314), this second portion (32) being linked to the first portion (31); and a substantially curved longitudinal fold axis (33) of the first portion (31), so that this first portion (31) is folded along the longitudinal fold axis (33) to cover a portion of the first portion (31) and the entirety of the second portion (32). This collar (11) further defines a height H1 between each outer longitudinal end (312, 314) at its central portion and a height H2 at both of its two lateral ends (313), with H1 equal to or larger than H2. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing such a collar (11). The invention also relates to a garment comprising such a collar (11).

A method and system for creating a continuous stream of elements of garments. With a multi-line fusing press: simultaneously and continuously, for each line of a plurality of lines, each line having a corresponding blower, a corresponding guide, and a corresponding feeder: passing a first substrate under the corresponding blower for the line and into the corresponding guide for the line; feeding, using the corresponding feeder for the line, a continuous fusible substrate into the corresponding guide for the line to position the fusible substrate above the first substrate; feeding, via the corresponding guide for the line and into the multi-line fusing press, a combination of the fusible substrate and the first substrate, the fusible substrate positioned above the first substrate; and the multi-line fusing press pressing the combination of the fusible substrate positioned above the continuous first substrate. The first substrate may be compacted by a multi-line compactor.
