Production Specifics
No previous knitwear experience is required as William Lockie work with large brands and new small businesses. Shima programming is done in house. The factory is busiest in the summer ahead of Autumn/Winter production so new products are best developed over the quieter winter months. New customers should be aware that the minimum order for bespoke designs is 100 units for non-cashmere fibres and 50 units for cashmere fibres. The minimum order for existing styles is 4 per size. There are no minimums for stock service.
