Two-thread French terry is a fabric for lightweight knitwear, including T-shirts, light sweatshirts, and loungewear. It is often confused with heavier sweatshirt fabric, leading to mismatched expectations about price, sleeve fit, and warmth.
This SWIFORT case involved selecting two-thread French terry for a client’s specific product range.
The brief
The client needed fabric for summer and transitional-season knitwear. It was important to choose genuine two-thread fabric with clearly understood density on both the face and reverse, rather than selecting supposedly all-purpose sweatshirt fabric by eye.
How we selected the fabric
- Selected two-thread French terry to suit the intended garments.
- Checked fabric weight, width, and face quality.
- Checked shrinkage and performance after washing.
- Approved a reference sample for color.
- Organized the wholesale shipment.
What to consider when choosing
- Two-thread French terry is lighter and suited to thinner garments.
- Higher fabric weight and a brushed finish suit warmer clothing ranges.
- Choosing the wrong fabric can lead to excess material consumption or fit defects.
Results
The client received fabric suited to the season and garment construction. Repeat orders follow the approved reference sample.
