T-Shirt :The Craftsmanship of Collars

An ordinary short-sleeved shirt. If you want to look stylish, the most important thing is how to make the collar.

The craftsmanship of collars is divided into one needle, two needles and three needles.

One needle: refers to a single line on the neckline, which is easy to become loose and affect the appearance. Therefore, it requires less labor and is low-cost. It is often used on cheap clothes.

Two needles: Make two lines at the neckline to make it firm and not easily deformed. This is a common practice for fashion brand T-shirts.

Three needles: The best firmness, the neckline is reinforced with three lines, and the labor cost is higher.

From the perspective of durability

Generally speaking: one needle < two needles < three needles. The more needles there are on the collar, the higher the knitting count and weight of the collar will be, making it more durable and less prone to deformation. It is enough to choose two needles for daily use.

What are the disadvantages and advantages of each?

One needle: If the clothes are light in weight, using one needle will easily deform the garment. It’s the worst kind. Factories generally do not choose a sewing needle.

Two needles: Like fashion brand factories, the T-shirt neckline is more likely to choose second needle, which is relatively stronger, more durable and less likely to deform! (For pure cotton T-shirts, do not choose a needle, as it is particularly easy to deform)

Three needles: Reinforced thread collar, this kind will not be easily deformed, and is much more durable than ordinary thread collar T-shirts.

Big brands, international fashion brands and street fashion brands focus more on functionality and durability, so the second and third needles will be used more and will be stronger.
