ZD0246 is knitted from 65% viscose, 35% rayon; the blend is what sets the hand, and here that means a fluid, cool hand with heavy drape.
Viscose leads the blend at 65% and falls close to the body and gives knit fabric a liquid movement that pure acrylic cannot.
The remaining 35% is carried by rayon, which drapes rather than holds a shape, and takes deep colour well.
In AW the garment is bought for warmth and for how it looks under store lighting, and the yarn decides both.
Viscose falls close to the body and gives knit fabric a liquid movement that pure acrylic cannot. Chosen when the buyer wants a dressy knit rather than a casual one.
Rayon drapes rather than holds a shape, and takes deep colour well. Often paired with viscose to keep a fine-gauge top fluid without adding weight.
The content for ZD0246 is published as 65%VISCOSE,35%RAYON, 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 ZD0246. It is listed here so you know precisely what to ask before sampling instead of assuming a value.

Importers costing ZD0246 against their own tech pack: the 65% viscose 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. ZD0246 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 ZD0246 is 65% Viscose, 35% Rayon, and that is what the sewn-in label has to match.
Stockholders who need ZD0246 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Viscose | A fluid, cool hand with heavy drape | Best washed cold or dry cleaned; it loses strength when wet |
| Rayon | A soft, cool hand close to viscose, with a light sheen | Wet strength is low, so care labelling has to be conservative |
| 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. ZD0246 is published in 65%VISCOSE,35%RAYON 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 ZD0246 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 viscose-led yarn also run a pilling test. Write the results into the order as the accepted standard.
Ask first. The catalogue lists ZD0246 in 65%VISCOSE,35%RAYON 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 ZD0246 in one message. Those five points are not published and decide whether this style fits your programme.
