Fisherman Cable Knit Description
The fisherman cable knit sweater represents a heritage construction refined through industrial knitting precision. Developed on 5G computerized flat-bed machines, this structure uses twisted wool or wool-blend yarns to deliver strong elasticity, uniform cable alignment, and excellent shape retention. Each garment maintains structural density after washing and pressing, ensuring a clean surface appearance suitable for export-grade knitwear collections.
In production, every panel is shaped using fully-fashioned techniques, minimizing seam distortion and yarn wastage. The cable layout follows traditional Aran rope patterns, balanced by ribbed cuffs and hem for improved dimensional stability. This ensures consistent fit across bulk production, ideal for brand and retail programs requiring high repeat accuracy.
For OEM clients, Knitwear.io provides flexible customization in gauge, yarn type, and cable pattern. Combined with in-house testing for shrinkage, tension, and twisting balance, this product line delivers both visual texture and manufacturing efficiency, ready for private label sweater development or corporate uniform programs.
