KNITWEAR GUIDE
Knitwear Manufacturing Guide
A practical guide for apparel buyers covering knit fabrics, product development, OEM and ODM options, sampling, fit, quality control, and key considerations before bulk production.
What Is Knitwear?
Knit fabrics are made from interlooped yarns, giving many knit constructions natural flexibility, stretch, and comfort. From T-shirts and sweatshirts to loungewear and seamless apparel, knit fabrics can be selected according to the required weight, structure, hand feel, and end use.
Choosing the Right Knit Fabric
Choose knit fabrics based on product use, weight, structure, stretch, recovery, hand feel, color, performance, target cost, and order quantity. For seamless garments, yarn composition, knit structure, gauge, stretch, and recovery are also important.
What to Prepare Before Manufacturing
OEM or ODM: Which Is Right for You?
Choose OEM if you already have a tech pack, approved sample, or detailed specifications. Choose ODM if you have an idea or reference product and need support with materials, construction, sampling, revisions, and preparation for bulk production.
