I have a small sweater line I’m looking at doing in china right now but I have a long lasting fascination with the shima seki machines. If you were doing a short fashion run would TI be appropriate? How does one get their preferred yarn over to someone like TI?

They definitely are a powerful option for smaller scale runs. Very much optimized to have the unit economics and turnaround time work for smaller brands. I don't really know the answer around supplying your own yarn. I'd assume that's the abnormal case, but just a guess.

TI says that they offer custom yarn at their "Flagship" level, with a $20k upfront cost. Not sure how that compares to setting up production overseas. Look at their plan features chart: https://tailoredindustry.com/pricing/boutique https://tailoredindustry.com/pricing/boutique
