Single jersey
A versatile knit for T-shirts, tops, and lightweight casualwear, developed by composition, weight, width, and hand feel.
Light to midweight applicationsCustom knitted textile development
Build the fabric your product needs.
When an available stock fabric cannot deliver the right weight, stretch, surface, or performance, custom knitting lets the textile specification begin with the garment's purpose.

The production decision
Structure, yarn, and finishing work as a system.
A knitted fabric is shaped by yarn composition and count, machine gauge, stitch structure, loop length, width, GSM, and finishing. Changing one variable can affect drape, stretch, recovery, opacity, stability, and cutting behavior.
We define the target around the end product, develop a trial, then review the fabric after relevant finishing. The approved textile becomes the reference for bulk knitting and garment sampling.
The working sequence
A fabric development path tied to the garment
The textile is not approved in isolation; it must still cut, sew, wash, and wear as the product requires.
-
01
Define the end use
Confirm garment type, season, target hand feel, opacity, stretch, performance, color, volume, and price context.
-
02
Set the construction
Choose composition, yarn direction, knit structure, machine gauge, width, and target GSM.
-
03
Knit a trial
Set up the machine and produce development yardage for finishing and physical review.
-
04
Finish & evaluate
Apply the proposed dyeing and finishing route, then check weight, width, hand feel, stability, and appearance.
-
05
Make the garment sample
Cut and sew the textile to confirm drape, recovery, seam response, opacity, and real product suitability.
-
06
Approve & produce
Freeze the fabric reference and key tolerances, then knit, finish, inspect, and roll the bulk lot.
Better inputs. Fewer assumptions.
What to send, and what we check.
Your side
What to provide
- Product useGarment type, target customer, season, fit, and how the product should move or feel.
- Reference materialA swatch or garment you like, with notes on what should be matched or changed.
- Technical targetComposition, GSM, width, stretch, finish, color, and performance needs if already known.
- Program volumeExpected fabric or garment quantity, colors, sampling need, and repeat-order outlook.
Our checkpoint
Quality considerations
- Weight & widthFinished GSM and usable width are checked against the approved target and tolerance.
- Dimensional stabilityShrinkage, spirality, skew, and relaxation are reviewed after the agreed conditioning or wash.
- Stretch performanceExtension and recovery are assessed where the product depends on fit or movement.
- Surface & continuityNeedle lines, holes, barre, contamination, streaks, shade, and other visible defects are monitored.
The approved reference
A specification becomes useful when you can compare production against it.
Words such as "premium," "soft," "vintage," or "large" are open to interpretation. A physical sample, exact measurement, approved swatch, artwork size, or signed proof gives the team a shared standard.
- 01 Define the decision
- 02 Review a physical result
- 03 Record the approval
- 04 Inspect bulk against it
Before you enquire
Questions buyers ask about fabric knitting.
Have a more specific product question? Send the brief and we will answer it in the context of your material, quantity, and intended result.
Ask about your productWe can use it as a development reference. Composition, yarn, machinery, finishing, and volume affect how closely it can be reproduced, so a trial and agreed tolerance are necessary.
Yes, within practical tolerances for the selected yarn, knit structure, width, and finish. Finished GSM, not only greige weight, should be the approval reference.
Common directions include single jersey, rib, interlock, fleece, loopback, and stretch or performance structures. The best route depends on the garment and program volume.
Dedicated knitting often has higher material and setup minimums than choosing an available stock fabric. Share your quantity so we can compare a custom route with sourced options.
The sampling plan can include finished GSM, width, shrinkage, spirality, stretch and recovery, appearance, and garment trial checks as relevant.
