Lu Her Knitting Factory

Company Profile

Breadth is again the theme, but knitted: tricot, crepe, French terry, bouclé, interlock, chenille, double knit, mesh, circular knit, fleece and ottoman, plus rib, computerised terry, single jersey, printed, jacquard, spandex, suede-type and velour fabrics and blanket cloth. Two specialisms stand out in the record — computerised jacquard knitted fabric, and polar fleeces with anti-pilling in dyed, printed and solid forms. A usable width of 60 inches is stated. For a garment exporter working across categories, a single knitting partner covering basics and fashion jacquards simplifies colour and quality management.

A knitted fabric is a looped structure, and loop geometry is destiny: stitch length decides weight and stability, gauge decides fineness, and yarn decides surface and cost. Mills in this family, Lu Her Knitting Factory among them, are therefore best compared on the machines they run and the yarns they habitually knit, rather than on fabric names that several loop structures can share. Buyers who specify 'Knitted fabrics of almost all kinds — tricot, jacquard, fleece,' should attach the gauge and weight they expect to the name, and ask the mill to confirm both before a sample is cut.

Sourcing and Working With Lu Her Knitting Factory

With a range this wide, narrow the enquiry: name the construction, fibre, weight and the end garment, and let Lu Her's R&D side propose the closest running quality before developing from scratch — OEM development is explicitly part of their offer. For jacquard, supply artwork early; for anti-pill fleece, agree the pilling grade to be tested. The record's contact is Wilson Chou in Hsin Chuang, Taipei; confirm minimums per construction, which vary widely across such a list.

Development work with Lu Her Knitting Factory goes fastest when the target is physical: send a sample of the quality you want matched, or a full written construction if no sample exists, rather than a photograph. Photographs hide weight, handle and finish — the three things that decide price. Ask for the development cost and timeline up front, and how many correction rounds are included. Once a development is approved, record exactly what was approved (construction, finish, shade references) in the order itself, so bulk production is judged against the development, not against a memory of it.

Understanding the Range

Knitted fabric names describe loop structures, and each structure behaves differently in cutting, sewing and wear. That is why an experienced buyer asks a knitter like Lu Her Knitting Factory for the loop length or tightness behind a quoted quality, not just its weight: two interlocks at the same weight can sew and shrink differently. Loop structures also decide which finishes make sense — anti-pilling treatments earn their cost on fleece, while softeners matter most on cloth worn against skin. Matching the structure to the garment first, and the price second, is the order that avoids expensive remakes.
