The yarn behind WT3177 is 100% acrylic, so the fabric comes off the machine with a dry, springy hand that holds a knitted stitch without sagging.
Acrylic leads the blend at 100% and keeps its shape after repeated wear, resists moths and takes bright dye well.
An AW knit wall is built on hand feel. Buyers compare surfaces side by side, which is why fibre variety matters more in this half of the catalogue.
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 WT3177 is published as 100%ACRYLIC, so you can price the yarn and write the care label before you sample.
For AW, work backwards from the cut date: booking, inspection, production, yarn, sample approval. Yarn is usually the binding constraint.
Everything marked TBC is genuinely not stated in the factory catalogue for WT3177. 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. WT3177 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 WT3177 is 100% Acrylic, and that is what the sewn-in label has to match.
Buyers judging WT3177 on how the acrylic surface photographs and how it holds through a full price selling period.
| 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 |
| 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. WT3177 is published in 100%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.

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.
Ask first. The catalogue lists WT3177 in 100%ACRYLIC only, so any other quality is a development rather than a stock option.
Send the quantity you are planning and ask for colourways, size range, MOQ, lead time and test reports for WT3177 in one message. Those five points are not published and decide whether this style fits your programme.
