read moreDouble stitched or Double Shuttle Woven Clothing Labels
Did you ever wonder why some clothes labels look more densely stitched and some have the small individual stitches showing? It’s called double shuttle weaving. Weavers basically adjust the design to stitch over the image again filling in stitches on top of each other to give the design a more solid look. The disadvantage is the you will lose a little crispness or detail that you may have otherwise had because the letters or design have to be slightly thicker but the trade off is a more richer and eye popping design. Just request double...

It may sound like an unimportant decision but you have to take folding options seriously if you want your clothing label to convey the look and feel that you intended. Let’s look at the most common options. Centerfolded or ‘looped’ – This fold works best if sewn into a seam. The label is double in length and then folded in half and sewn across the top.

Many times we are faced with a problem in woven clothing labels when weaving colors on to a white or light colored background. It’s called a shadow.

There are quite a few decisions to make when considering a woven or printed clothing label and all are equally as important. One of the most common dilemmas is where the label will be sewn.
