Circular knitting

I follow someone on Instagram.

when they do it's quite labor intensive like when you cut out those uh like for example a sports bra that i have used these circular knitting machines and how you you basically need you can't regular when you cut out fabric you have so many layers of fabric and cut everything at once with like these saws basically that you like you saw out the you don't cut even you have like a saw that you you cut out the fabrics in but here you basically need to take one by one and cut the shape of the neckline the armhole and because you can't lay them flat on top of each other so it's quite labor intensive to do that of course when they do it i mean they're super quick they are so skilled But yeah, it's quite fascinating to see.

But usually, no, we don't have patterns for it.

Then we just make measurements.

The way you see it, it's very common, like, branded T-shirts.

If a company wants to do, like, a brand T-shirt, you know they can usually order just three sizes maybe three or four like small medium large x large it's a unisex pattern so to speak and that means that it will not fit anyone well but it will fit a lot of people reasonably and you don't have to have like a a big size range and and you Those t-shirts are more like for promotion, so you don't have the same kind of expectations, I would guess.

That's probably also why you see it more commonly on these kind of t-shirts, rather than if you go to... like a regular clothing stores today i it's quite unusual i think to see t-shirts using um this kind of circular knitting technique without yeah yeah

and to be honest i think it's much more cost efficient to to make the fabric by the meter and then cut everything out at once i mean it's so much more efficient to to do it that way so i think i think it's a cost cost as well
