Whether it's a fine-gauge merino crewneck or a chunky lambswool roll-neck, here's how a UK brand gets jumpers made well, duty-free, without Far-East minimums.
"Jumper" covers a lot of ground for a UK brand — crewnecks, roll-necks, cardigans, tank tops, knitted dresses and polo knits. Getting them made well is about matching gauge, yarn and construction to the look you want, then producing it to UK sizing at a minimum that fits your launch. Here's how it comes together.
Gauge (3gg–14gg) decides weight and season: chunky 3–5gg lambswool for autumn/winter statement knits, fine 12–14gg merino or cotton for lightweight layering. Yarn sets hand-feel and price — merino, lambswool, cashmere, cotton, alpaca and blends, sourced as certified yarns. Tell us the look and we'll advise the gauge/yarn pairing that hits it at your target cost.
Panels knitted to shape on Stoll machines and linked — the quality standard for a structured jumper, with clean fashion marks.
Seamless, knitted in one piece on Shima Seiki — no side seams, premium hand-feel, near zero-waste.
Intarsia, jacquard, cable and rib for colourwork and texture — the detail that makes a jumper yours.
Graded to your UK size block, proven on a size set before bulk — not converted from someone else's pattern.
Our 250-piece MOQ per colourway lets a UK brand test a capsule without committing to Far-East minimums, with first samples in 10–14 days and bulk in 45–60. Add duty-free entry under the UK–Türkiye FTA and ~10–14 day freight to Felixstowe, and you can plan a drop with confidence rather than crossing your fingers on a 6-week lane.
