Knitted Hat Embroidery.
KNITTED HATS WITH YOUR DESIGN EMBROIDERED.
We embroider directly onto the fabric of the knitted hat to give a high quality finish. Knitted hats come in all different styles. From Folded edge to bobble hats or beanies,loads to chose from to suit your project.
KNITTED HAT EMBROIDERY DESIGN
When looking to embroider your design on knitted hats a simple and clean design always works best. Try keep the lines in your design above 1mm thick, so the thread doesn’t disappear into the fabric. More solid style designs will result in a more solid or stiff embroidery result on your custom knitted hat.
Have a browse through some of the specifications below to get a clearer understanding of the custom embroidery areas and sizes.
KNITTED HAT STYLES
With a large selection of knitted hats or beanies to choose from it’s important to make sure your custom knitted hat embroidery will work on your chosen knitted hat.
Some knitted hats have deep ribs or even corded ribs, we have to take these in consideration before embroidering your custom design onto the knitted hats.
If you are unsure, just drop us an email with your design, the beanie you would like and we’ll have a look and see what we can do.
GENERAL EMBROIDERY AREA
The safe area for knitted hat embroidery is 140mm wide x 60mm. Keep your embroidery design within this area. Our suggestion would be 135mm wide x 55mm on a folded knitted hat, allowing your custom embroidery to sit comforably on the fold of the knitted hat.
A GOOD EMBROIDERY SIZE
Working with loads of knitted hats we have found the perfect embroidery area is around 110mm wide x 40mm high. Now this depends on your logo style and the detail in your design. Try keep your embroidery design more simple for a great looking knitted hat embroidery.
FISHERMAN STYLE KNITTED BEANIE
A pull on shorter style knitted hat known as ‘fisherman beanie’ can either have a small turn up folded edge or more of a no turnup ‘skull hat’. Keep in mind smaller turnup area smaller design area of 20-30mm high style dependent.
THE SLOUCH KNITTED HAT
A classic alternate look is the slouch knitted hat. With no fold or turn up this knitted has a larger area for embroidery. We would recommend your knitted hat embroidery design keeps within 120mm high x 120mm wide. Keep the design light so it doesn’t make the embroidery area to stiff.
CIRCULAR EMBROIDERY DESIGN
Similar to embroidering patches on knitted hats, keep your design within 60mm high. This allows the circlular design to sit comfortably on the turnup knitted hat.
BADGE STYLE EMBROIDERY
Badge or Patch Embroidery look great on knited hats. Again sizing for Embroidered patches must be kept within 60mm high and allow for a 4mm border line. The border is the stitch that goes around the edge of the patch design.
BOBBLE HATS
Bobble hats have the classic pom pom at the top of the knitted hat. bobble hats come in many different variants but generally have the same embroidery area as the turn up knitted hats keeping your design with an 135mm wide x 55mm high.
