{"product_id":"bella-canvas-3985-unisex-v-neck-lightweight-sweater-heather-athletic","title":"Bella + Canvas 3985 - Unisex V-Neck Lightweight Sweater - Heather Athletic","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bella + Canvas 3985 is the Unisex V-Neck Lightweight Sweater, a lightweight 3.7 oz 65\/35 poly\/viscose body in a 1x1 smooth ribbed sweater knit with a v-neck and raglan sleeves, the blank a decorator reaches for when a programme wants a soft draped sweater-knit layer with a smooth flat printable surface rather than a fleece sweatshirt or a jersey tee. It is the lightweight sweater for boutique and resale lines, retail and corporate layering programmes, event and conference merch, and the group and team runs that buy a soft draped knit layer by the dozen. The body is a lightweight 3.7 oz of 65% polyester \/ 35% viscose spun to 30 singles, knit to a 1x1 smooth rib that gives the soft drape and a flat surface that takes a print well, cut to a unisex relaxed retail fit with a v-neck, raglan sleeves, side seams and a tear-away label. The size range runs XS through 2XL, in three colours: Midnight, Heather Athletic and Heather Dark Gray, with the Midnight running the 65\/35 poly\/viscose body and the Athletic Heather a 52\/48 poly\/viscose blend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 3985 decorates as a no-cotton poly\/viscose sweater knit, not a cotton tee, which sets the method plan and the placement: there is no cotton in the body, so the cotton-only routes are out, and the smooth 1x1 rib gives a flat printable front, so keep art on the flat front panel clear of the v-neck and the raglan seam. For DTF, the transfer bonds to the poly\/viscose face and presses clean on the smooth ribbed front, the standout and most colour-consistent route and the reliable pick on a no-cotton sweater knit. For screen printing with plastisol, the 65% polyester migrates heavily and the viscose is heat-sensitive, so run a low-bleed ink and a poly-blocking underbase, keep the deposit controlled and the cure lower so the knit does not scorch, registering the art on the flat front panel. For vinyl, a low-temp flexible HTV presses cool so it does not glaze the viscose and flexes with the rib, the route for names and numbers. DTG does not apply, since the body has no cotton, so DTG ink will not bond or cure on the poly\/viscose. Water-based and discharge do not apply, since there is no cotton to discharge and water-based ink will not bond to the poly\/viscose knit. Embroidery does not apply, since the lightweight 3.7 oz ribbed sweater knit is too light and stretchy to hoop without puckering. Sublimation does not apply, since the colours are dark and heathered rather than a white polyester base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrand: Bella + Canvas\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStyle: 3985 (Unisex V-Neck Lightweight Sweater)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFabric: 65% polyester \/ 35% viscose, 30 singles (Athletic Heather is 52% polyester \/ 48% viscose)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 3.7 oz\/yd2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConstruction: 1x1 smooth ribbed sweater knit, v-neck, raglan sleeves, relaxed retail fit, side-seamed, tear-away label.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFit: Unisex relaxed retail fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSizes: XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eColors available: 3 colours (check current availability on the product page)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOrdering: available by the piece or by the case; confirm current packing per case for your colour and size before a large order\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCare: Machine wash cold, gentle.

Run a low-bleed ink with a poly-blocking underbase and a controlled lower cure on any plastisol because the 65% polyester migrates and the viscose is heat-sensitive, and press any HTV cool so it does not glaze the knit. Bella + Canvas holds consistent sizing and knit construction across runs, which keeps the relaxed fit stable reorder to reorder.
