1. Scope and Applicability
This rule covers made-up gloves, shawls, scarves, veils, ties, cravats, other clothing accessories whose defining textile construction is knitted or crocheted, and knitted or crocheted garment or accessory parts sold as standalone products. The boundary ends at the accepted factory-gate product. Each data package declares its actual article, fibre composition, knit technology, purchased-fabric or on-site knitting route, finishing, joining, and packaging. Nonknitted articles and complete garments use their own category rules.
2. Product Category Identity

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
knitting | On-site knitting | conditional | Only when yarn is knitted on site | foreground formation | per 1 kg reference flow |
assembly | Cutting and joining | required | Record actual joining for every article; document no cutting for fully fashioned output | foreground making-up | per 1 kg reference flow |

The cotton route below contains concrete foreground exchanges. Other fibres, finishing agents, or trims require separate atomic flows for their real material and process after UUID review; cotton rows are not proxies for them. Interprocess transfers are recorded as paired outputs and inputs and cancel in the aggregate.
