Utility pockets and structured panels for a woven program.
Pocket volume, flap closures and seam reinforcementQIANLONG / CRAFTSMANSHIP LIBRARY
A controlled resist-and-dye process that creates pattern through folding, binding and dyeing rather than through printed artwork. Each piece carries natural variation, which is part of the effect rather than a defect. The pattern method is agreed on a sample so variation stays within your tolerance.
PARAMETERS
| Best on fabrics | Visual effect | Artwork needs | Limits / risks | Typical add-on lead impact |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cotton jersey, French terry, fleece and other absorbent knits | Organic, flowing colour pattern with variation between pieces | No artwork file — pattern method and colourway agreed on reference | Piece-to-piece variation is inherent; exact reproduction of one sample is not possible | Adds a dye and cure cycle after assembly |
