ZD0146 runs on 100% cotton, which gives the piece a smooth, cool hand with very little stretch memory.

Multi-door buyers filling a autumn/winter knit wall. ZD0146 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 ZD0146 is 100% Cotton, and that is what the sewn-in label has to match.
Buyers judging ZD0146 on how the cotton surface photographs and how it holds through a full price selling period.
| 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 |
| Wool (alternative) | A warm, resilient hand with natural crimp | Needs a wool cycle or dry cleaning unless the yarn is treated |
