How to buy performance cloth for knitwear
Buying knitwear with a performance constraint means rejecting cloths that only match the adjective.
The garment test
For knitwear, the brief needs dimensional stability. A useful hand note is appropriate stretch.
For knitwear pieces, performance matters because active and technical programmes need measurable behaviour, not aesthetic adjectives.
Keep the comparison fair
Stay inside one construction while you test performance for knitwear. Performance finishes can change hand and care requirements.
Questions
- Can one performance cloth cover every knitwear piece?
- Only if the fabric page also meets recovery. Otherwise keep looking.
