Sp Knitwear

If you come down P.N. Road, you’ll find us at number 215, right near the Iyyapanar area. We’ve been running this knitwear business for a good while. It started out very small, just a couple of machines in a room. Now we have a bit more space, but it’s still the same kind of work. We make clothes, mostly the knitted kind. You can see the thread and the yarn piled up in the corners. It’s a bit messy sometimes, but that’s how a real workshop looks. We aren't trying to be fancy. We just make sure the stitches are tight and the sizes are correct. The traffic on P.N. Road can be a headache, but it means people can find us easily. We have some local guys working with us, people who have been around for years. We talk about the weather and the price of yarn while we work. It’s a simple setup. We don't have a big marketing team or a shiny website. People just come by or call us on the phone when they need something made. We’ve had some tough times, like everyone else, but we just keep the machines running. It’s what we do. We like the smell of the new fabric and the sound of the needles moving. It feels good to see a finished shirt at the end of the day. It is rewarding work.
