Product Overview
This men acrylic crewneck pullover is a mid-gauge jacquard sweater developed for autumn and winter casual programs. The standard material is 100% acrylic, with a finished garment weight of approximately 453g (size L reference).
The entire body features a horizontal zigzag jacquard pattern knitted directly into the fabric using two contrasting yarn colors. Collar, cuffs, and hem are finished in solid rib knit for structural balance. The construction is straightforward with no embroidery, no patchwork panels, and no external trims. The focus of this style is pattern clarity, color contrast stability, and repeatable jacquard production for medium to large volume orders.
Design, Material & Construction
Yarn & Fabric Structure
The sweater is knitted using mid-gauge computerized flat knitting machines with full-panel jacquard programming.
- Composition: 100% acrylic
- Fabric reference weight: approx. 250–270 g/m²
- Finished garment weight tolerance: ±7g
Acrylic fiber is selected for color consistency, wash durability, and cost control in high-volume production. Yarn evenness is tested before knitting to reduce floating thread irregularities in jacquard sections.
Jacquard Pattern Engineering
The horizontal zigzag pattern is constructed through controlled yarn switching at fixed row intervals.
Both front and back panels use identical jacquard mapping to avoid shade difference between body sections. Sleeves continue the same horizontal repeat without interruption.
Neckline & Rib Structure
The crewneck is knitted in single-layer rib, approximately 3–4 cm width, using the same navy yarn as the pattern lines. Cuffs and hem are 5–6 cm rib knit, produced under a unified density setting.
Rib recovery testing is performed after steam shaping to prevent uneven tightening between neckline and hem. No contrast tipping or piping is added, keeping structure consistent across bulk production.
Assembly & Seam Control
All seams are flat linked. Sleeve attachment follows drop-shoulder construction to reduce tension at the armhole seam.
Jacquard transition areas inspected for loop integrity before linking.

FAQ
Q: 1. Can the zigzag jacquard be simplified for lower-cost programs?
A: Yes. Pattern density and repeat size can be adjusted while maintaining the same base structure.
Q: 2. Does 100% acrylic maintain color consistency across batches?
A: Color consistency depends on dye lot management. Yarn dye batches are recorded and matched to reduce shade variance in repeat production.
Q: 3. Is the weight stable across different sizes?
A: Weight grading follows size scaling standards. Tolerance per size remains within ±7g of the graded target.
Q: 4. Can the sweater be converted to single-color knit?
A: Yes. The same structure can be produced in solid knit without jacquard mapping if required.
Q: 5. How is pattern alignment ensured at side seams?
A: Panel knitting uses synchronized repeat mapping. Seam linking is performed under alignment check to avoid horizontal shift.
Q: 6. Does production support long-term repeat programs?
A: Machine files, yarn sourcing records, and finishing logs are archived, allowing stable replication of the jacquard structure in future bulk orders.
