OEM & Private Label · For Boutiques & Independent Labels

Knitwear Manufacturer for Boutiques

Small-batch flat-knit for boutiques and independent labels — a 250 MOQ, distinctive techniques (intarsia, jacquard, cable, WHOLEGARMENT) and a direct line to the founder who runs the floor. Your designs, your label.

Boutiques win on distinctiveness, not volume. We make the small, characterful runs big factories won't touch — knit-to-shape pieces, special stitches and your own colourways, all under your label, with one person (the founder) on the other end of the conversation.

Where high-volume mills optimise for sameness, a boutique trades on the opposite: a stitch, a colourway or a silhouette no one else carries. That is precisely the work we are built for — short, technical runs knit on industrial flat-knit machines, finished by hand, and turned around without the minimums or the layers that come with a large supplier.

What Makes a Boutique Knit Piece Distinctive

Knitwear is engineered at the yarn, not cut from cloth. Every stitch is formed loop by loop, so the character of a boutique piece is decided long before it reaches the machine — in the fibre you choose and the gauge you knit it at. Get those two right and an ordinary silhouette reads as considered and premium.

Yarn & fibre

  • Natural fibres — merino, lambswool, cotton, linen, alpaca and cashmere blends — each with its own hand, drape and pilling behaviour
  • Performance and recycled blends where durability or price point matters
  • Yarn count and ply chosen to hit the exact weight, softness and structure your piece needs
  • Certified options (OEKO-TEX, GOTS, GRS) sourced from suppliers, with documentation

Gauge & structure

  • Gauge (needles per inch, roughly 3gg–14gg) sets everything from chunky hand-knit looks to fine layering pieces
  • Fully-fashioned shaping — stitches added and dropped to form each panel rather than cut — for clean selvedges and less waste
  • Rib transitions, collars and cuffs knit to hold their shape wash after wash
  • The same design knit at two gauges becomes two genuinely different products

Techniques That Make It Unmistakably Yours

Pattern and texture are knit into the fabric, not printed on top — which is why a well-made knit piece holds its detail and its value far longer than a graphic tee. See the knit stitch guide for the full vocabulary.

01

Intarsia & Jacquard

Blocks of solid colour with no floats (intarsia) or all-over multi-colour motifs carried on the back (jacquard, up to 6 colours) — graphics, logos and placed artwork knit in, never printed on.

02

Cable, Aran & Texture

Crossed stitches, bobbles and travelling cables build relief and heritage character — the detail that justifies a boutique price and photographs beautifully.

03

Rib, Pointelle & Pattern

Engineered ribs, pointelle eyelets, tuck and pucker stitches and lace structures add openwork, stretch and surface interest — without a single seam or print.

04

WHOLEGARMENT Seamless

Knit complete in one piece on Shima Seiki WHOLEGARMENT — no side seams, no linking points. The cleanest finish, lighter weight and a silhouette that moves with the body.

Sampling, Fit & Quality on a Small Run

A boutique order lives or dies on the first sample. We prototype before you commit a single bulk piece, so fit, hand and colour are signed off on a physical garment — never guessed from a screen. The sampling process is where a good idea becomes a sellable product.

Sampling

  • First prototype in 10–14 days from an approved tech pack or reference garment
  • Iterate on measurements, yarn, colour and trims until a pre-production sample is approved
  • Lab dips and knit-down swatches for colour and handfeel sign-off
  • The approved sample becomes the contractual standard for the run

In-house quality control

  • Inspection against your approved measurement and tolerance table (AQL)
  • Checks for fabric faults, shading, seam and linking integrity, and label placement
  • Steaming, blocking and pressing to final dimensions
  • Every batch held to the same standard so reorders match the original

Built for Small Labels

Our 250-piece MOQ exists for one reason: an independent label should not have to gamble a season's cash on warehouse-scale minimums. Order per colour and size to match what your shelves actually turn, validate a style with real customers, then reorder the winners on the same machines and yarns. It is your design, your woven label, your packaging — pure OEM, never our own brand placed against yours.

You also deal with one person. No account tiers, no sales layer rewriting your brief — a direct line to the maker who runs the floor. That is how the small details survive intact from sketch to shipment, and how a five-style capsule gets the same attention a thousand-piece order would.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is your minimum order quantity for a boutique?

250 pieces per colour and size — low enough for a boutique or independent label to launch a style without committing to warehouse-scale minimums or carrying dead stock. Reorder the colours and sizes your shelves actually turn.

Can you produce my own designs under my label?

Yes. You provide the design, a tech pack or a reference garment and we produce it under your own woven label and packaging — pure OEM. We never sell your designs under our own brand against you.

What knit techniques can you do for a boutique piece?

Intarsia, jacquard (up to six colours), cable and Aran textures, rib, pointelle, tuck and lace structures, plus seamless WHOLEGARMENT knitting — all formed on industrial flat-knit machines at roughly 3 to 14 gauge.

How long does it take from sample to delivery?

First samples in about 10–14 days; bulk production typically 45–60 days after the pre-production sample is approved. Reorders of an already-approved style are faster.

Are your yarns certified?

We source certified yarns such as OEKO-TEX, GOTS and GRS from our suppliers and pass on the supporting documentation. The certificates originate with the yarn supplier rather than with us.
