KnitAdvisor

KNIT FABRIC CALCULATION ENGINE

See the fabric before you knit it.

Enter GSM, composition and structure. KnitAdvisor returns yarn count, loop length, machine gauge, production rate and cost, and renders a construction-accurate preview — built for knitting mills and buying houses across Bangladesh.

WHY MILLS USE IT

One spec sheet, every answer.

Everything a knitting floor needs to cost, source and produce a fabric, solved together from a single input.

Yarn count & loop length

Ne, tex and denier with the full formula trace, plus loop length for any of 70 knit constructions.

Machine spec & production

Gauge, dial diameter, feeders and needles resolved together, then kg per hour, per shift and per day once RPM and efficiency are set.

Costing from real inputs

Fabric price per kg from live yarn prices and dyeing recipes, then garment CMT and FOB with consumption, allowances and cutting loss.

Quality & fibre advisory

Predicts shrinkage and spirality risk and flags composition and process mismatches before machine time is booked.

K/T/M pattern & 3D preview

Knit, tuck and miss laid out visually with the needle sequence behind it, and a 3D view of the construction.

Tech pack, RFQ & carbon

Export a fabric tech pack PDF, take buyer quote requests with reference pricing, and see a screening-level carbon footprint.

FABRIC VISUALIZER

Adjust the spec. Watch the fabric change.

Move the GSM slider or switch structure and shade to see how density and construction read on the surface. The exact yarn, machine and cost figures come from the calculator once you are signed in.

Illustrative texture. This drawing shows how density and structure read visually; it does not compute yarn, machine or cost values. Those come from the engine.

HOW IT WORKS

From spec to floor, in four steps.

01

Enter the spec

GSM, composition and structure — or describe the fabric in a plain sentence.

02

Engine calculates

Yarn, loop length, machine, production, quality and cost solved together, with the formula trace shown.

03

Visualize & check

Preview the construction and shade, and read the risk flags before committing machine time.

04

Export to mill

Download the tech pack PDF, or send it to a buyer as a reference-priced quote request.
