Single jersey

For T-shirt, underwear, sleepwear, dress, lining, or lightweight knit programs where fiber, yarn, gauge, weight, width, stretch, recovery, spirality, shrinkage, and surface appearance determine usability.

Buyer use case

Specification discussion points

Discuss end use, weight and width tolerance, usable width, hand, drape, opacity, stretch and recovery method, spirality, shrinkage, pilling, colorfastness needs, roll length, and relaxation before cutting.
Mark fixed requirements, supplier-proposal variables, measuring methods, tolerances, and approval references so the Single jersey quotation does not rely on hidden assumptions.

Common brief gaps

Briefs commonly omit relaxed versus measured width, tubular or open form, gauge and density, stretch test method, recovery target, spirality and shrinkage limits, and required relaxation time.
Add quantity range, destination, target window, trade term, testing responsibility, document version, and approver because these commercial inputs can change the feasible Single jersey route.

Materials & construction

Specify fiber blend, yarn count and type where relevant, knitting gauge and density, finished weight, tubular or open width, finish, stretch direction, recovery, compacting, color method, and surface target.
Link Single jersey material choices to end use, target hand, care method, and acceptable alternatives; recheck sample, cost, and timing effects after any substitution.

Sample approval checks

Approve relaxed fabric plus a cut-and-sewn trial; review surface, edge curling, seam behavior, needle cuts, stretch recovery, opacity, dimensional change, spirality, pilling, and print compatibility.
For every Single jersey sample, record purpose, specification version, material status, comments, open items, and approval limits; photographs do not replace necessary physical review.

QC checkpoints

Control weight, width after relaxation, density, shade, barre, holes, needle lines, oil marks, edge curl, stretch and recovery, shrinkage, spirality, roll tension, joins, and identification.
Use the current specification and approved sample for QC; record actual results, recurrence, affected quantity, and disposition owner without presenting visual checks as compliance proof.

Packaging considerations

Agree roll relaxation, winding tension, tube or flat-fold form, face direction, protective wrap, moisture control, lot separation, roll labels, gross and net basis, and storage before cutting.
Packaging approval should cover unit protection, label-data source, assortment, carton dimensions and weight, and transport method, using a complete pack to verify Single jersey appearance and function.

FAQ

Why must single jersey relax before measurement?

Knitting, finishing, rolling tension, transport, and storage can temporarily distort width, weight, curl, stretch, and shrinkage readings; use an agreed relaxation method.

What causes spirality concern in single jersey?

Yarn twist, knit structure, finishing, cutting direction, and laundering can rotate wale lines and side seams, so fabric and sewn-garment review are both useful.
