In general the larger plants were those manufacturing full-fagh- 
ioned hosiery. One plant with 700 employes was manufacturing both 
types of hosiery but the bulk of their product was full-fashioned 
hosiery. Of the plants manufacturing seamless hosiery, none had 
more than 250 employes. Table 6 lists the hosiery plants by size of 
establishment and type of product.
