Filling in a knit sweater tech pack
Fully-fashioned knitwear is a different manufacturing universe from cut-and-sew: the factory knits your panels to shape, so the tech pack talks in gauge, yarn count, and stitch structure instead of fabric yardage. An intarsia design adds a color-map layer — every color area is knitted in, not printed on — and the artwork must be supplied as a chart the knitting programmer can follow.
The points of measure that matter
- Across chest and body length: knits relax after linking and washing; state measurements after finishing, half-garment flat.
- Sleeve length from CB and raglan/set-in depth: the armhole architecture is knitted, not cut — it must be named.
- Neck width and trim height: the collar is a separate knitted trim; spec its structure (e.g. 1x1 rib) and height.
- Cuff and hem rib heights: non-graded constants, knitted at a tighter tension than the body.
- Intarsia motif placement: anchor the design area from CF and from the hem in finished centimeters or inches.
Questions the factory will ask
- Gauge: 3gg chunky, 5–7gg mid, or 12gg fine? Gauge drives yarn choice, hand-feel, and price simultaneously.
- Yarn spec: fiber, count (e.g. 2/28s), plies used per area, and supplier if you have one.
- Intarsia color count — each additional color area adds programming and knitting time.
- Linking method for seams and shoulder — hand-linked is premium and priced accordingly.
- Washing and blocking process after knitting; measurements are meaningless without it defined.
Fabric
There is no "fabric" row — the BOM leads with yarn: lambswool, merino (often 2/28s–2/48s counts), cotton, or acrylic blends for price. A mid-gauge (5–7gg) crewneck is the most versatile starting point. Spec the knit structure per zone: jersey body, 1x1 or 2x2 rib trims, and the intarsia chart as an attached artwork file.
Knit Sweater tech pack template FAQ
How is a knitwear tech pack different from a cut-and-sew one?
Panels are knitted to shape, so the pack specifies gauge, yarn count and fiber, stitch structures per zone, and linking — not fabric consumption. Measurements are stated after washing and blocking, because knits move during finishing.
What does the factory need for an intarsia design?
A color chart (grid) of the motif, the exact yarn color for each area with Pantone references, the placement anchored from center front and hem, and the total color count — which directly affects the programming cost.
What gauge should a first crewneck sweater be?
Mid-gauge, around 5–7gg, is the safest start: it reads premium, tolerates a wider yarn range than fine 12gg work, and more factories run it well. Chunky 3gg and fine-gauge knits both narrow your factory pool.
