ZD0077 runs on 85% acrylic, 15% metallic yarn, which gives the piece a dry, springy hand that holds a knitted stitch without sagging.
Acrylic leads the blend at 85% and keeps its shape after repeated wear, resists moths and takes bright dye well.
The remaining 15% is carried by metallic yarn, which lifts a plain stitch under retail lighting.
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.
Metallic yarn lifts a plain stitch under retail lighting. A low-cost way to give one body two very different retail stories.
The content for ZD0077 is published as 85%ACRYLIC,15%METALLIC, so you can price the yarn and write the care label before you sample.
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.
Everything marked TBC is genuinely not stated in the factory catalogue for ZD0077. It is listed here so you know precisely what to ask before sampling instead of assuming a value.

Importers costing ZD0077 against their own tech pack: the 85% acrylic ground is the line that sets the yarn price, and it is fixed here before sampling starts.
Multi-door buyers filling a autumn/winter knit wall. ZD0077 is one body in a women'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 ZD0077 is 85% Acrylic, 15% Metallic yarn, and that is what the sewn-in label has to match.
Stockholders who need ZD0077 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 |
| Metallic yarn | A reflective filament twisted through the ground yarn | Cold wash, inside out, no tumble 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. ZD0077 is published in 85%ACRYLIC,15%METALLIC 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 Autumn/Winter Knitwear section of the catalogue. For AW, work backwards from the cut date: booking, inspection, production, yarn, sample approval. Yarn is usually the binding constraint.
It is not published. Request the MOQ for ZD0077 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. ZD0077 appears in one content, and a substitution changes the cost, the care label and the hand at the same time.
