Working together

A clear path
from brief
to garment.

Each stage turns a design decision into something that can be reviewed, refined and approved. Quantities and timing are confirmed for the individual project.

Start with your brief
01Share your brief

Your collection, your starting point.

Choose from our basic styles, or send your own product idea, reference images or tech pack. Include your material direction, estimated quantity and target timing where available.

02Align materials & construction

Make the development decisions clear.

Review yarn, colour, stitch and garment requirements together. Technical feasibility and the information needed for sampling are checked before agreement.

03Develop & review samples

See the product take shape.

Use samples to review fit, texture, construction and finish. Gather feedback and discuss revisions before the specification is finalised.

04Approve the requirements

A shared reference for production.

Confirm the product specification, approved sample, quantities, commercial terms and timing in writing before bulk production.

05Make & finish

Work to the agreed direction.

Knitting, garment assembly, washing and finishing follow the confirmed requirements. Review inspection arrangements for the individual product.

06Prepare for delivery

Complete the handover.

Review final product details, packing requirements and delivery arrangements before dispatch. Confirm any changes to the agreed scope or schedule.

Discuss your production plan

Before we begin

What should we send?

A brief, reference images or a tech pack is a useful starting point. Add your material direction, estimated quantity and target timing where available.

Can we start before every detail is final?

Yes. Tell us what is already defined and which decisions are still open. We can discuss what is needed before sampling can be agreed.

Can you make small production runs?

Yes. Orders start from 50 pieces per style, and colour splits can be discussed. For example, one style in one colour can be a 50-piece run, and two colours at 50 pieces each make 100 pieces. Materials, size allocation and production details are reviewed with your brief.

Can we choose from your basic styles?

Yes. We offer a range of basic knitwear styles to choose from. Ask us for options, then discuss the yarn, colours and any details you would like to develop.

How long do sampling and production take?

Samples usually take about 7 days once the style details are clear, and bulk production about 3–4 weeks after sample approval. The schedule for your order is confirmed after the requirements have been reviewed, so share your target timing early. Read our sampling guide

Can you quote from a reference image?

An image can start the conversation. A quotation also needs sufficient detail about materials, construction, quantities and other requirements; we will identify what needs to be clarified. See the quote preparation checklist

Where does your
project stand?

Whether you are defining a new style or preparing for sample development, share your brief and the questions you need to resolve.
