Notes for the factory

  • Collar: a flat-knit collar is knitted to size; give its height at centre back and the tipping, if any.
  • Placket: state the finished length and width and the number of buttons, and which side laps over.
  • Side vents: say whether the hem has vents and a longer back (a drop tail), and how long each is.
  • Piqué shows needle lines: ask for a sample in the bulk fabric before you approve the fit.
