Our grandmother at Gökbakan Triko
In 1972 our grandmother was head of the washing department at Gökbakan Triko. Our family's knitwear story began there, and so did the way we look at quality.
OAS TrikoIstanbul · 3rd generation
Stitchby stitch.
Premium knitwear from Istanbul. Three generations, from our grandmother at Gökbakan Triko in 1972 to today's machines, knitting your collection with the same care.
You can tell a sweater by its first stitch.
OAS Triko is a family knitwear workshop in Istanbul. From boutique collections to large runs, we knit for brands in Turkey and abroad.
We work with cashmere, wool, cotton and custom yarn blends, from 3gg to 16gg, in many knit structures. Strict quality control at every step, open communication and delivery on the date we promise. That is what three generations have not changed.

From yarn to carton in five steps.
From sample to shipment, our third-generation management stays in direct contact with you, with quality checks at every step.
1
Design
From your tech pack, sketch or reference garment we set the knit structure and gauge, then knit the sample.
2
Knitting
The approved sample moves to the machines with the chosen yarn and gauge. Every panel is knitted to the same measure.
3
Making up
Panels are joined by linking and sewing. Collars, ribs and details are finished and checked by hand.
4
Inspection
After washing and pressing, every piece is measured against the size chart and checked stitch by stitch.
5
Shipping
After folding, labelling and packing, your order leaves on the date we promised.

It depends on the style, the yarn and the knit structure. We work from boutique collections to large runs. Add your estimated quantity in the form and we will reply with a clear number.
Do you make samples?
Yes. We knit samples from your tech pack, sketch or reference garment, and start production after your approval.
How is the delivery date set?
It is planned around quantity, style and yarn supply, and confirmed in writing with the order. Delivering on the date we promise is the basis of how we work.

Yes. We work with brands in Türkiye and abroad, and we correspond in English and Turkish.
What does gauge mean?
Gauge (gg) is the number of needles per inch on a knitting machine. 3gg gives a chunky winter knit; 12 to 16gg is for fine, refined knits. We run 3, 5, 7, 10, 12, 14 and 16gg machines.
