Custom Fair Isle Jacquard Knit Sweater

Fair Isle is the most colour-hungry family in knitwear: densely banded geometric motifs running edge to edge, framed by a solid ribbed collar, cuffs and hem. Because every band is a separate needle programme, most mills cap these designs at four to six colours and quietly simplify the motifs to fit their machines. We knit the full band sequence as genuine jacquard structure on our own computerized flat-knit floor, holding up to 13 yarn colours in one programme, so band order, motif geometry and colour placement survive intact from the sample you approve to the last carton of a repeat order. The result is a substantial 480–620 g/pc pullover with real raised hand-feel rather than a printed or embroidered imitation. Gauge runs 5GG–9GG for the traditional chunky hand, or finer gauges for a lighter spring weight. Yarn options cover lambswool and wool blends, brushed wool-acrylic for a softer entry price, extra-fine merino for a premium tier, and anti-pilling acrylic for hard-wearing uniform programmes. Standard trims include fully fashioned set-in sleeves, 2x2 ribbed collar, cuffs and hem, and a blank or custom woven neck label so your own brand sits inside the garment. Typical buyers are heritage and country-inspired menswear labels, Scandinavian and Japanese select shops, university and sports heritage programmes, boutique gift and holiday collections, and DTC brands building a signature seasonal pattern. MOQ 100 pieces per design, sampling 72 hours from yarn stock confirmation, bulk production 2–3 weeks after PPS approval, DDP door-to-door shipping to US, EU, UK, AU and JP.
