Brief
You share the target weight, width, composition and end use; we propose the machine, gauge and yarn combination.
Knitted fabric production
Kaşkorse Knitted Fabric
Rib variant with pronounced vertical channels and strong recovery that follows the body. Channel depth and yarn choice let the same structure read either fine and elegant or firmer with clearly defined ribs.
Structure and production
Its body-following drape, shape retention after washing and soft hand make it a standalone fabric for vests, bodysuits, dresses and basic tops, and a natural companion for collars and cuffs on jersey and interlock garments. Modal and viscose blends give a silkier appearance.
In sourcing this rib, Tutku Fabric focuses with its production partners on the elastane ratio. A lower ratio gives a natural hand and soft drape, while a higher one carries recovery through long wear in close-fitting blocks; both alternatives are knitted side by side on sample so the level that suits your pattern can be identified. The chosen ratio is recorded technically and kept on repeat orders.
Sourcing and sampling
One team from sample to bulk.
We knit Kaşkorse on our own circular knitting machines in Kahramanmaraş and follow it from sample to bulk with one team.
Sample
We knit the sample on our own machine park in Kahramanmaraş and report greige and finished weight with post-wash dimensions.
Approval and recipe
Machine, settings and yarn lot of the approved sample go into the recipe; bulk is planned on that recipe.
Production and dispatch
Light-table inspection at the knitting exit, weight and width measured per lot; approved quality ships with traceable lot data.
FAQ
Questions about Kaşkorse.
What weight and width is Kaşkorse produced in?
Our standard weight band is 180–300 g/m²; width: Tüp veya açık en 90–150 cm. Values outside the band are developed on request; the target is confirmed on the sample with post-wash measurements before bulk is planned.
Which products is Kaşkorse used for?
Typical end uses are atlet, elbise, üst giyim. Composition options include pamuk/elastan, modal/elastan; we recommend the yarn and finish according to the product and washing expectations.
Why is width stated as tubular or open?
Rib structures relax and narrow across the width, so tensioned and rested widths differ noticeably. We therefore state whether the width is tubular or open and under which condition it was measured, always on rested fabric.
