WT3118 runs on 70% acrylic, 20% nylon, 10% cotton, which gives the piece a dry, springy hand that holds a knitted stitch without sagging.
Acrylic leads the blend at 70% and keeps its shape after repeated wear, resists moths and takes bright dye well.
The remaining 30% is carried by nylon, which raises abrasion and pilling resistance, and lets a yarn stay light without going fragile.
Autumn/Winter knitwear carries the margin in most knit programmes: heavier yarns, more surface interest and a longer selling window at full price.
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.
Nylon raises abrasion and pilling resistance, and lets a yarn stay light without going fragile. Usually blended in at 10-30% to protect the seams and cuffs that fail first in wear tests.
Cotton breathes well and stays comfortable in mild weather. The default choice for spring and summer knitwear sold into warm climates.
The content for WT3118 is published as 70%ACRYLIC,20%NYLON,10%COTTON, so you can price the yarn and write the care label before you sample.
AW gives a little more calendar room than SS, and the sensible use of it is a proper wash test rather than an extra colour.
Everything marked TBC is genuinely not stated in the factory catalogue for WT3118. It is listed here so you know precisely what to ask before sampling instead of assuming a value.

Multi-door buyers filling a autumn/winter knit wall. WT3118 is one body in a men's autumn/winter 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 WT3118 is 70% Acrylic, 20% Nylon, 10% Cotton, and that is what the sewn-in label has to match.
Stockholders who need WT3118 to repeat. Ask whether this yarn quality carries over to the next AW block before you build depth on it.
| Fibre | Hand and behaviour | Care |
|---|---|---|
| Acrylic | A dry, springy hand that holds a knitted stitch without sagging | Machine washable at low temperature and quick to dry |
| Nylon | A fine, slightly slick filament that adds tensile strength | Stable in washing and fast drying |
| 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. WT3118 is published in 70%ACRYLIC,20%NYLON,10%COTTON and nothing else, so a different quality would be a development with its own sample and its own wash test.
What has to be agreed before the first carton is packed.
Wholesale buyers who hold stock, sell to smaller retailers and need consistency more than novelty.

It sits in the Men's Autumn/Winter Knitwear section of the catalogue. Most AW programmes confirm in the first half of the year, so a shortlist sent early gets a better answer than a large one sent late.
It is not published. Request the MOQ for WT3118 together with the price at two or three quantities, so you can see the curve rather than a single number.
Run a wash test and a measurement check on the counter sample, and for acrylic-led yarn also run a pilling test. Write the results into the order as the accepted standard.
Not as listed. WT3118 appears in one content, and a substitution changes the cost, the care label and the hand at the same time.
Send the quantity you are planning and ask for colourways, size range, MOQ, lead time and test reports for WT3118 in one message. Those five points are not published and decide whether this style fits your programme.
