Custom Mohair Sweater Manufacturer
Mohair is bought for its halo — the soft bloom on the surface. Too little and you have paid a premium for a plain wool sweater; too much and it sheds on everything it touches.
Technical specifications
The halo is a yarn decision, made before anything is knitted
Halo comes from the fibre — the fine, longer mohair fibres stand out from the yarn and catch light. It is not a finish applied afterwards, and it cannot be added to a low-mohair yarn by brushing harder.
Shedding comes from the same place. A high-mohair yarn with a weak twist releases fibre onto whatever it touches; a balanced blend holds the halo while keeping the fibre in the garment.
We settle the blend ratio and the twist against a physical swatch before the yarn is ordered, because that is the only point where it is still cheap to change.
What you customise on a wholesale mohair sweater
Blend ratio and garment shape are the two decisions that matter most.
- Blend — mohair percentage, and what it is blended with (wool, nylon, acrylic, silk)
- Halo — flat and smooth, mid bloom, or a heavy brushed surface
- Garment — crew, V-neck, cardigan, polo, or a loose oversized shape
- Gauge — fine 12G/14G for a dressy knit, 3G/5G for a chunky one
- Colour — Pantone-matched, with a note that pale shades show the halo more than dark ones
- Labels and packaging — woven neck label, care label, hang tag, polybag
Every option you choose on this style
Anything not listed is still worth asking about — send the reference and we will tell you whether it can be knitted, and what it changes in the quote.
How a custom mohair sweater is made here
Yarn is confirmed on a swatch before a single garment panel is knitted.
- Yarn selection — blend and twist agreed against a knitted swatch you can hold and rub
- Chart and program — your design charted to the gauge that suits the yarn
- Sample — a physical sample in 72 hours, washed once so the halo settles before you judge it
- Bulk knitting and finishing — panels knitted, linked, washed and pressed without over-brushing
- Inspection and dispatch — shedding checked by rubbing the finished piece against dark fabric
Wholesale order terms
Why we don't publish a price
A custom product has no universal price. Two orders for what looks like the same sweater can land far apart, because the number is built from the specifics below — and a factory that quotes you a figure before asking these questions has not costed your order at all.
- Yarn and material — acrylic, cotton, wool and cashmere are different products, not the same product at three prices — the fibre decides hand feel, weight and cost together
- Size and fit — a kids' size and an adult 2XL draw different yarn on a different machine setup, and a full size curve spreads the fixed cost differently
- Knitting structure — a plain jersey knit and a textured relief or intarsia panel run at different speeds on different machines — the construction is the single biggest driver of machine time
- Colour count — every additional colour in a jacquard chart means another yarn feed and another colour change on every row, so a 3-colour motif and a 13-colour all-over pattern are not close in cost
- Wastage and yield — complex charts, textured structures and cut-and-sew patterns lose more material on the machine. That loss rate is a real line in the cost, and it moves with the design
- Quantity — pattern charting and machine programming are fixed costs — the longer the run, the thinner they spread across each piece
- Trims and packaging — woven labels, hang tags, foil boxes, polybags and Pantone-matched yarn all add per piece, and each one is a separate quote line

Will a mohair sweater shed?
Some surface fibre always comes away at first, and any supplier who promises zero shedding is describing a different yarn. What can be controlled is how much: the blend ratio and the twist decide it, and both are settled on a swatch before the yarn is ordered. Ask to rub the swatch against a dark sleeve — that is the test your customer will run.
Are you a factory or a trading company?
We own the knitting floor in Dalang, Dongguan. Knitting and linking happen on our own machines, and woven work is ours as well. Anything outside those — certain finishing, printing on some materials, hard goods — comes from partner workshops, and we say which is which instead of claiming everything is in-house.
What do you need from me to quote?
Artwork or a reference image, the size range, the quantity you have in mind, and the destination country. A vector file is best but a sketch or a phone photo is enough to start — our CAD team turns it into a knit chart and sends it back for your approval before anything runs.
