For keeping knitting tools (2) in readiness and mounting them on knitting machines or other loop-forming machines, a tool holder (4) is provided, which is formed by or contains a transport rail (5). The transport rail (5) has two clamping legs ( 9, 11), which are parallel to one another and are provided with regularly distributed slots (16, 17). The slots firmly clamp inserted knitting tools by frictional engagement. With the knitting tools (2), the transport rail (5) forms a manipulable unit, in which when it is freely handled, the knitting tools (2) do not fall out of the transport rail (5). The pitch of the transport rail preferably matches the pitch of a needle bed of a machine to be equipped. The equipping of the machine is done by placing the transport rail on the needle bed or attaching it to it and pressing the knitting tools away, in a direction approximately perpendicular to the back portion (6) of the transport rail (5), out of their frictionally engaged mounting into their needle channel. Multi-part knitting tools are thus securely held together in every stage.

The invention claimed is: 1. A tool holder for holding elongated knitting tools, comprising: a transport rail extending longitudinally, the transport rail including a back portion; a plurality of first clamping legs extending at an angle from longitudinally extending edges of the back portion and being adapted to hold together at least two parts of each of the knitting tools; and a plurality of slots disposed along each of the clamping legs, the slots being adapted to transversely receive the knitting tools and being further adapted to retain the knitting tools by frictional engagement; and a closure part having a plurality of second clamping legs adapted to abut the first clamping legs of the transport rail, wherein the first clamping legs of the transport rail include first end portions having an outer spacing from one another, and the second clamping legs of the closure part include second end portions having an inner spacing from one another, the inner spacing of the second clamping legs of the closure part being less than the outer spacing of the first clamping legs of the transport rail. 2. The tool holder of claim 1, wherein the slots are spaced relative to one another so as to define a pitch adapted to match a predetermined pitch defined by a plurality of needle channels in a knitting machine. 3. The tool holder of claim 1, wherein the first clamping legs are disposed parallel to and spaced apart from one another. 4. The tool holder of claim 1, wherein the first clamping legs are resilient. 5. The tool holder of claim 1, wherein at least one of the first clamping legs has a portion that diverges away from the other first clamping leg. 6. The tool holder of claim 5, wherein the diverging portion of the at least one first clamping leg defines an obtuse angle with the other first clamping leg. 7. The tool holder of claim 5, wherein the plurality of slots are entirely disposed on in the diverging portion. 8. The tool holder of claim 1, wherein the transport rail is one piece. 9. The tool holder of claim 1, wherein the transport rail is plastic. 10. The tool holder of claim 9, wherein the plastic transport rail has a uniform wall thickness. 11. The tool holder of claim 1, wherein the transport rail is flexible. 12. The tool holder of claim 1, wherein the closure part is adapted to fit over the transport rail. 13. The tool holder of claim 1, wherein the plurality of slots on one of the plurality of clamping legs have lengths that differ from the lengths of the plurality of slots on the other clamping leg. 14. A shipping unit having a tool holder according to claim 1, wherein the knitting tools are inserted into the plurality of slots. 15. The shipping unit of claim 14, further comprising a casing.
