R. P. K Kniits

If you are looking for R. P. K Kniits, you have to head over to No. 304 - B in Thai Mookambikai Nagar. It is in the Siru Pooluvapatti area, specifically No. 15 Velampalayam. This part of town is full of textile units, so you will hear the sound of knitting machines as soon as you get close. Our building is a practical space where we focus on making various knitted items. Inside, it is usually a bit loud because of the equipment, but we are used to it. We have big rolls of yarn stacked up against the walls and different colored threads everywhere. The lighting is bright so we can see any mistakes in the stitching. It is a humble setup, but it works for us. We spend our mornings checking the machines and the afternoons packing up the finished goods. There is always a lot of dust from the cotton, so we keep the windows open when the weather allows it. Most of us have been in this trade for a long time, so we don't need to say much to get the work done. We just know the rhythm of the needles. Sometimes things get hectic when a big order is due, but we usually manage to keep things moving. It’s just a regular local business trying to stay busy in a competitive area like Velampalayam.
