The present document describes a textile-assembly toolkit for reversible assembly of a textile to an electronic-speaker device. The toolkit includes multiple attachment features, including rigid features with matched purposefully-designed knit types that can be combined to enable repeatable, mass-producible, reversible assembly of the textile to the electronic-speaker device. The techniques described herein enable accurate alignment of the textile on the electronic-speaker device without distorting the textile's cosmetic pattern and in a manner that results in no visible edges of the textile or visible attachment features on the exterior of the electronic-speaker device. Also, the textile-assembly toolkit includes attachment features that secure the textile with sufficient tension to avoid acoustic distortion such as rub and buzz.

This document describes textile assemblies for speakers, including textile assemblies with inlaid tensioning yarns, and associated apparatuses and methods. The textile assembly includes a textile body () with inlaid tensioning yarns (). The textile assembly () may be a fully-fashioned textile swatch. The tensioning yarns are inlaid at intervals in the textile body but can slide within or be pulled through the textile body. Further, the tensioning yarns have ends () that are accessible near the edges of the textile body for various reasons. First, pulling on them while the textile assembly is on an acoustic device () tensions the tensioning yarns such that they limit movement of the textile assembly and break up vibration modes. Second, their ends can be tied directly to, formed into loops to hook over, or wound around, features () on the acoustic device to removably secure the textile assembly to the acoustic device.

A method for manufacturing a garment includes gathering customer data from a plurality of customers, the customer data being associated with respective ones of a plurality of garment orders and including customer information regarding at least one customizable garment parameter and generating a schedule for producing a plurality of customized garments including analyzing the at least one customizable garment parameter for the at least some of the plurality of garment orders. The method further includes manufacturing the plurality of customized garments according to the schedule.

System and method for manufacturing custom-sized garments

A method for manufacturing a knitted garment includes obtaining customer data regarding at least one customizable garment parameter and applying at least one sequencing module to the customer data to generate a pattern for a customized garment according to the at least one customizable garment parameter. The at least one sequencing module includes a radial symmetry module that includes applying a first transfer sequence to a first section of stitches including executing an underlapping transfer of stitches from successive pairs of needles in the second bed to successive single needles in the first bed, respectively, and applying a second transfer sequence to a second section of stitches including executing an overlapping transfer of stitches from successive pairs of needles in the second bed to successive single needles in the first bed, respectively.
