You share the target weight, width, composition and end use; we propose the machine, gauge and yarn combination.
Knitted fabric production
Punto di Roma Knitted Fabric
Fuller and stretchier than Punto Milano; balanced faces, compact double knit. The stitch layout gives the fabric a soft volume: the face stays matt and even while the cross-section remains firm enough to carry the pattern.
Structure and production
Its stretch and gently holding stance keep body-following blocks comfortable. It is used in dresses, skirts, trousers and jackets worn day to day, and it gives easy movement across a wide size range. Because it recovers easily after washing, it keeps the care burden low on frequently worn pieces.
Tutku Fabric develops Punto di Roma with its production partners inside an open revision loop. Your feedback on the first sample is recorded item by item; the corrections needed for fullness, stretch and the matt or lustrous balance of the face are carried into a second round, and what changed is reported in writing. The number of rounds is planned so nothing is blocked before you approve.
Sourcing and sampling
One team from sample to bulk.
We knit Punto di Roma 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 Punto di Roma.
What weight and width is Punto di Roma produced in?
Our standard weight band is 280–430 g/m²; width: Açık en 145–170 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 Punto di Roma used for?
Typical end uses are elbise, etek, pantolon. Composition options include viskon/polyester/elastan; we recommend the yarn and finish according to the product and washing expectations.
How do both faces of a double-bed fabric stay even?
Cylinder and dial stitch lengths are balanced on the sample; an unbalanced setting causes lines or uneven shrinkage on one face. Since a single faulty needle leaves a line along the whole roll, a trial knit and light-table inspection are done for every lot.
