The Azknit Company FAQs
AZ Knit is based in Dalang, Dongguan, China, known as the world’s sweater capital. Dalang hosts 28,000+ knitting enterprises, 300,000 workers, and 1.2 billion sweaters annually, making it the largest global hub for yarn sourcing, innovation, and knitwear production.

Yes. For luxury brands, we specialize in cashmere, extra-fine merino, seamless, and fully fashioned knitwear. For mass retail chains, we provide cost-effective blends, durable trims, and scalable production. Our dual capability allows us to serve **different market segments** effectively.
Sampling usually takes 3–5 working days, depending on yarn availability and design complexity. Bulk production lead time is around 3 weeks after sample approval, with priority scheduling available for urgent orders or seasonal deliveries.
Yes — you absolutely can wash knitwear from AZKnit, but to maintain its quality and ensure it performs as intended (especially since it’s your brand’s premium product line), we recommend following these specific care steps:
Check the fiber composition: Whether it’s cashmere, merino, alpaca, wool, cotton, or a blended yarn will determine how you should wash it.
Hand wash vs. machine wash: For delicate fibers like cashmere, merino, alpaca or high‑end knitwear styles from AZKnit, opt for cold water hand washing with a gentle detergent. For more durable fibers or blends, a cold gentle machine cycle in a mesh laundry bag is acceptable.
Drying method: Always lay flat to dry on a clean towel (reshape while damp) rather than hanging, which can stretch the garment and distort the design.
Avoid high heat: Both during washing and drying — heat can cause shrinkage, pilling, or fiber damage.
Use proper detergent: A mild, wool‑safe or cashmere‑safe detergent will preserve softness and longevity.
By incorporating these practices, you’ll keep your AZKnit pieces looking sharp, feeling luxurious, and lasting longer — supporting your brand’s positioning as an OEM/ODM knitwear specialist offering high‑quality collections.
