Novelty & Textured
Novelty & Textured, defined.
Surface-effect stitches that add material or dimension to fabric: bobbles, beads, and organic clusters.
Turns flat fabric into a tactile, sculptural statement that signals undeniable hand-crafted artisan work.
Specify for runway showpieces, statement sleeves, or luxury focal points.
Novelty & Textured samples, knitted to order.
Open any swatch for the stitch name, the family, a note on the effect, and a call to action to knit it for your collection. Use the density and yarn-weight companions to preview the stitch across tension and weight before sampling.
As knitted for the reference swatch. A visual preview only, to help you read how a stitch behaves at different tension/gauges before sampling.
Medium-weight yarn. Balanced stitch definition, the industry reference weight. Pair with the density toggle to read how a stitch behaves across weight and tension before sampling.
Take this family into a garment.
A swatch is the start of the conversation, not the end of it. We write a full pattern for your chosen stitch, knit an individual tension swatch before each garment, and produce from a single piece to 1000 or more, with one artisan per garment.
How designers obtain physical swatches.
Screen images cannot convey the drape, weight, and hand-feel of genuine hand-knits. We knit and courier 20 × 20 cm physical swatches directly to your design studio.
Seeing Yarns Available in India: Swatches allow fashion designers to touch and evaluate the extensive range of yarns accessible directly through our Indian mills. Sourcing yarns locally in India avoids complex customs tariffs, import duties, and transit delays, keeping collection budgets and lead times predictable.
We source premium Indian fibres including organic cotton, handspun indigenous wools, silken blends, and fine natural animal fibres, as well as yarns imported from around the world and mohair spun or dyed to order.
Select Stitches & Fibres
Browse our library or send reference imagery with target tension/gauge and fibre preferences (e.g. organic cotton, merino, silk, or mohair).
We Invoice for Swatches
KOCO invoices at a nominal swatch fee plus express international courier. We always knit a full 20 × 20 cm tension sample on bamboo needles.
Delivery in 1–2 Weeks
Plain swatches arrive in your studio within 1–2 weeks. Once you approve the swatch and yarn in hand, we check and confirm your production tension/gauge and pattern.
