Woven knitwear labels.I need to have some woven labels made for our Angora knitwear.Do any of you know of a supplier who could make me some nice ones preferable in cotton or another natural material at short notice? Thanks.

I do, but I reckon the least qty they'd make is 1000 and that'd be with some serious arm twisting, would have to check availability of cotton though, most of the stuff we make nowadays is polyester. |

We deal with a company called Northwood Accessories, they may be able to help you.

Thanks Tahir and Penny!
Penny I 'phoned Northwood and they can do me 500 labels in two colours for under £100 which I consider a great result. 
I've looking on the internet for two weeks now for somebody who could make me fewer that 4000. I wish I'd asked in here first.

Penny, I didn't ask his name (which is unusual for me) but the man I spoke to was charming and very helpful.
David eh...? 
Gardening girl, Thanks. I sell most of our things locally from our farm although I also do mail order. I'm trying to persuade people to buy wool rather than knitted stuff because it's me who does the knitting and there just aren't enough hours in the day! |

I have a village of very skilled unemployed knitters.....and knitware is cheap to post.... but they have no market. |
