The yarn behind WT3005 is 55% cotton, 45% acrylic, so the fabric comes off the machine with a smooth, cool hand with very little stretch memory.
Cotton leads the blend at 55% and breathes well and stays comfortable in mild weather.
The remaining 45% is carried by acrylic, which keeps its shape after repeated wear, resists moths and takes bright dye well.
Spring/Summer knits are judged on how they sit after the first wash, because the fibres used in this window have the least stretch recovery.
Cotton breathes well and stays comfortable in mild weather. The default choice for spring and summer knitwear sold into warm climates.
Acrylic keeps its shape after repeated wear, resists moths and takes bright dye well. The workhorse fibre for volume knitwear programmes, because landed cost stays predictable across a season.
The content for WT3005 is published as 55%COTTON,45%ACRYLIC, so you can price the yarn and write the care label before you sample.
Buyers normally confirm SS bulk in the second half of the previous year, so sampling questions are best raised early.
Everything marked TBC is genuinely not stated in the factory catalogue for WT3005. It is listed here so you know precisely what to ask before sampling instead of assuming a value.

Importers costing WT3005 against their own tech pack: the 55% cotton ground is the line that sets the yarn price, and it is fixed here before sampling starts.
Multi-door buyers filling a spring/summer knit wall. WT3005 is one body in a women's spring/summer knitwear section, so it can sit beside related yarns rather than standing alone.
Online sellers who print the content on the product page. What you publish for WT3005 is 55% Cotton, 45% Acrylic, and that is what the sewn-in label has to match.
Stockholders who need WT3005 to repeat. Ask whether this yarn quality carries over to the next SS block before you build depth on it.
| Fibre | Hand and behaviour | Care |
|---|---|---|
| Cotton | A smooth, cool hand with very little stretch memory | Washes easily but can relax in length, so wash-tested measurements matter |
| Acrylic | A dry, springy hand that holds a knitted stitch without sagging | Machine washable at low temperature and quick to dry |
| Wool (alternative) | A warm, resilient hand with natural crimp | Needs a wool cycle or dry cleaning unless the yarn is treated |
The third row is an alternative fibre shown for comparison only. WT3005 is published in 55%COTTON,45%ACRYLIC and nothing else, so a different quality would be a development with its own sample and its own wash test.
You select from the catalogue and adapt it, rather than developing a body from zero.

It sits in the Women's Spring/Summer Knitwear section of the catalogue. The SS calendar is tight at the front: raise the wash test and the measurement chart before the range is locked.
The catalogue does not publish an MOQ for WT3005. Ask by email, and ask whether it applies per style, per colour or per size run, because the three answers are very different.
Run a wash test and a measurement check on the counter sample, and for cotton-led yarn also run a pilling test. Write the results into the order as the accepted standard.
Possibly, but treat it as a new development: WT3005 is published in one quality, and a different yarn needs its own sample and its own wash test.
Send the quantity you are planning and ask for colourways, size range, MOQ, lead time and test reports for WT3005 in one message. Those five points are not published and decide whether this style fits your programme.
