Fully fashioned knitwear is a particularly refined type of knitwear that requires specific craftsmanship skills. Knitwear is worked using a special technique that allows the creation of pieces without cutting and sewing the parts, but rather by shaping the article directly on the knitting machine. The result will be a creation with a harmonious fit that bears the signature of a traditional technique.



What is the difference between lowered and cut knitwear?
The main difference between fully fashioned and cut-and-sewn knitwear lies in the method of garment construction. In cut-and-sewn knitwear, fabrics are made into large rectangular pieces and then cut and sewn together to create the final piece. This process can result in wasted material. In contrast, fully fashioned knitting involves crafting the piece directly into its final shape, eliminating the need for cutting and sewing. This not only reduces waste but also improves the fit and elasticity of the knit.
How is fully fashioned knitwear made?
The process begins with a detailed pattern that includes all the necessary directions for shaping the knitted piece. During the process, the number of needles used on the knitting machine gradually decreases at strategic points to achieve the desired shape, usually around the neckline and armhole. The result is a precious, perfectly shaped garment with a professional finish.
How to recognize fully fashioned knitwear?
To recognize a piece of lowered knitwear, simply locate where the decrease in needles has taken place, generally around the neck and at the armhole. Here, you will be able to observe drop stitches with a curvilinear pattern, which can be considered the signature of craftsmanship. In addition, fully fashion knitwear has no visible seams on the sides, and you will notice a continuity of the knitting pattern, with no obvious breaks or joins.
