Tailored Crochet Cardigan Sweater For Women in Silk with High-Low Hem
Tailored Crochet Cardigan Sweater For Women in Silk with High-Low Hem
A Brewery and Taproom approached us to develop a tailored crochet cardigan sweater for women around a single idea: high-low hem, executed in silk. The capsule was destined for India and needed tailored finishing that reads designer on the rail while staying repeatable in bulk. This case study records the brief, the specification and the delivery.
The challenge
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

- The crochet cardigan sweater for women was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- High-Low Hem was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
