Cut & Sew Knitwear Manufacturing
Cut & sew knitwear is made from knitted fabric that is cut into panels and sewn together into a finished garment. It is a common route for everyday knit pieces, from simple tops to zip-up jackets and matching trousers.
Yuehua Garment, Foshan works with overseas brands and buyers on cut & sew knitwear for men and women. Share your design or reference sample, and we will discuss specifications, materials and production requirements with you.
Pieces Buyers Often Bring to Us
Cut & sew construction suits a wide range of everyday knitwear. These are typical pieces brands ask about:
- Tops and long-sleeve tops
- Sweatshirts and zip-up tops
- Jackets and light outerwear
- Trousers and joggers
- Matching sets of top and trousers
Cut & Sew vs. Fully Knitted Garments
In cut & sew, fabric is knitted first, then cut and sewn, so seams, panels and finishing details are part of the design. In fully knitted garments such as sweaters and cardigans, the shape is formed in the knitting itself. If your style is closer to a knitted sweater or cardigan, see our Knitted Cardigans page.
