Manufacturing Excellence: Mastering the 16-Gauge Silk Blend
Precision Knitting: Silk yarn is notoriously slippery and difficult to knit on fine-gauge machines. Our advanced Japanese Shima Seiki machines and 20-year experienced technicians ensure the 16GG ribbed tension remains perfectly uniform, preventing any dropped stitches or "laddering" during wear .
Luminous Finish: The dominant 85% silk composition gives the garment a sophisticated, subtle sheen that elevates it far beyond a basic knit top, making it highly suitable for evening or formal office wear.
Ethical & Traceable: Your brand's reputation is protected. WFS Cashmere is fully audited by BSCI, WRAP, and ISO9001. All our silk and cashmere yarns adhere to strict sustainable sourcing guidelines and are OEKO-TEX 100 certified, ensuring zero harmful chemicals .

B2B Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Since this is a very thin 16GG sweater, is the fabric sheer or see-through?
A: Despite its featherweight nature, the dense micro-ribbing and the premium 2/48Nm yarn count provide excellent opacity. While extremely light colors (like optic white) may have a slight translucency when stretched, standard colors remain fully opaque and sophisticated.
Q2: Will the ribbed fabric stretch out and lose its shape?
A: No. The high-twist Silk/Cashmere yarn combined with our precisely programmed 16-gauge ribbed tension creates a "dynamic recovery" effect. The garment will comfortably stretch to hug the wearer's curves and immediately snap back to its tailored shape after washing.
Q3: What is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ)?
A: We support emerging and established luxury brands with a flexible MOQ of just 100 pieces per style/colorway .
Q4: How long does custom sample production take?
A: Fine-gauge silk blending requires meticulous machine setup. Expect custom sample delivery within 7 to 10 days after your tech-pack is confirmed .
