Typically, a knitted garment consists of separate parts-the front and back body panels and the sleeves-which are sewn together afterward. In sharp contrast, WHOLEGARMENT Knitwear is produced in one entire piece, three dimensionally, directly on the knitting machine. Consequently it requires no expensive, time-consuming post production labor. The "ideal-knitwear" WHOLEGARMENT products raise the essential attributes of knitwear softness,lightness and resilience to an entirely new level of sophistication.
