Crewneck Sweatshirt Tech Pack Template

What goes in a crewneck sweatshirt tech pack starts with two numbers most specs get wrong: neck width and collar rib height. This one carries both as critical rows, plus the cuff and waistband ribs, the body block, and the hem drawn two ways so you choose rather than describe.

Neck rib height and neck width — the two numbers that decide whether a crewneck pulls on at all.

Commissioning a crewneck sweatshirt spec from a technical designer typically runs €150 to €900 and takes days. This one was drawn inside a Portuguese factory that cuts the garment every week, and it is in your inbox in minutes.

Why this one is different

Crewneck Sweatshirt, specified

Two numbers decide whether a crewneck works: neck width and collar rib height. Get the width wrong and the garment does not go over a head, or it gapes. Get the rib height wrong and the neckline either disappears into the shoulders or sits up like a school jumper. Both are named rows here, and neck width is flagged as a measurement the factory cannot cut without.

The body is drawn slightly shorter than the hoodie block, because there is no hood weight pulling it down — the kind of decision that is invisible until you put the two garments side by side.

Drawn in two silhouettes — with the bottom rib and without — so you choose the hem and delete the other.

Points of measure

Every row in the pack

All 12 of them, with the convention each is measured to. 5 are marked as measurements a factory cannot cut without — they print in bold on the page. The values themselves are inside the document, graded XS–XXL with tolerances; we do not publish them here.

Measurements in this pack are drafted from published industry sizing (EN 13402-3 body girths; Craft Yarn Council body lengths) with standard ease for the stated fit class. They are a production-ready standard block, not White Cotton house measurements. Confirm the graded spec against your own fit sample before bulk production.

FAQ

Before you buy

What does 'two silhouettes' actually mean?+

The pack draws the garment both ways — with the ribbed bottom band and with a plain hem. You keep the one you want and delete the other page before the file goes to a factory.

Does it work for a heavier fleece than the one listed?+

Yes. The fabric line is a starting point you overwrite. Changing weight usually means revisiting the rib and the body ease, and the rows are there to change rather than to be re-derived.

What do I actually receive?+

A vector PDF and an .ai file, by email, immediately after payment. Both open and edit in Illustrator, Affinity or CorelDRAW — nothing is flattened or locked.

Can I use it with any factory?+

Yes. The document is yours and carries no supplier details — no address, no contact, nothing that ties it to us. It is drawn to industry convention so any factory can read it.

Are the measurements already filled in?+

Yes, as a production-ready standard block graded XS–XXL with tolerances, drawn from published industry sizing. It is a starting point you overwrite to match your own fit sample — the pack says so on the page. Your own fields (brand, style code, season, colourway names, artwork) arrive marked [FILL IN] in red so nothing ships carrying someone else's data.
