The Knit Mill focuses on flat-knitted products. Bring a design, reference sample or product idea, and tell us the fibre preference, construction and quantity you have in mind.
The Knit Mill develops and manufactures flat-knitted products. Send the design or reference sample, measurements, fibre or yarn preference, stitch construction and quantity.
Include any finishing, labelling, packaging and testing requirements so the inquiry describes the complete product.
For product development, send the sketches, measurements, reference images, technical pack or sample you have. Identify the details still to be decided, such as yarn, stitch construction, sizing, colour and finishing.
Ask what development and sampling work is needed before a manufacturing quotation.
Buyer and technical guide
Define the flat-knitted product
Begin with the finished product. Construction, measurements, material and quantity belong in the same brief.
Process basics
How the process works
Knitting forms a textile by joining loops of yarn. A flat-knitting machine arranges its needles along straight beds. Specify the stitch structure, yarn and measurements together; gauge alone does not describe the finished product.
