What to send for
a cashmere
knitwear quote.

Getting started

A clear brief is enough to begin.

Send your garment idea or ask to see our basic knitwear styles. Add your preferred material, planned quantities and target timing. If a detail is undecided, say so. We confirm prices for each project after reviewing the product specifications and order requirements.

For your first message, include your name, company if applicable and an email address for our reply. A reference image, sketch or short description can start the conversation; a completed tech pack is helpful when you have one.

Our main focus is cashmere knitwear from our family factory in Qinghe, China. “100% cashmere sweater” gives us the material direction, but we also need to understand the garment, sizing, construction and order before confirming a price.

How materials, construction and quantities affect your quote ↗

What goes into your quote?

Share the details below where known. We will identify what needs to be clarified for your quotation.

• Style and fit: garment type, intended wearer, silhouette, neckline, sleeves and any fastenings. Include your style reference or selected basic style.
• Composition and yarn: 100% cashmere or your preferred blend and percentages. Add yarn specifications if available; otherwise describe the material and feel you want.
• Knit and weight: gauge, stitch and target garment weight if known. State the size associated with a reference weight. If these are open, describe the intended weight and texture.
• Colours and quantities: list the number of pieces for each style in each colour. Include colour references, or ask to review colour options.
• Sizes and measurements: size range, proposed pieces per size and key measurements such as chest, body length and sleeve length. Mark any size allocation still to be decided.
• Labels, trims and packing: describe required brand labels, care labels, hangtags, buttons, individual packing or other details.
• Delivery and requirements: target timing, sales market and delivery country or city. Tell us whether you need shipping included in the quote and share any required testing, documentation or inspection arrangements for review.

Orders start from 50 pieces per style, and colour splits can be discussed. For example, one style in two colours at 50 pieces each totals 100 pieces. Include the breakdown even when you already know the total.

If you have a target budget, you can share it with the brief. It is optional and helps us discuss the product direction; pricing still needs to be confirmed against the specifications.

Have a tech pack? Send the current version.

Include the style drawings or front and back views, measurement chart with units, composition and yarn requirements, stitch and construction details, colourways, trims, labels and packing pages that apply to the project. Add a style reference and version date so changes can be tracked clearly.

No tech pack yet?

You can ask to choose from our basic styles, or send a sketch or reference image. Explain which features you want to develop, such as the neckline, fit or texture. References help describe your direction; we will discuss the design and the specifications needed for your own product.

Keep confirmed requirements and open questions separate. Write “to be confirmed” for unknown technical details so we can resolve them together.

A checklist you can copy.

Copy this outline into your email or project message. Fill in what you know and mark the rest “to be confirmed”.
