What you need to know if you want to customize wool sweaters.
After seeing some very cute Christmas sweaters, would you like to personalize wool or cotton sweaters, the same way you would with inexpensive personalized t-shirts or sweatshirts ?
Great idea: printing or embroidering a sweater is possible and allows you to create a unique and inimitable gift (or self-gift).
But before you start thinking about designs or lettering to apply to a sweater, you should know a few details about customization techniques.
Custom sweaters: print or embroidery?
If you want to customize sweaters, you should know that printing is not the most suitable technique.
First of all, it doesn't guarantee optimal results, as sweaters tend to have loose fibres, which are not suitable for fabric printing inks.
Secondly, it is very expensive, precisely because for the print to adhere to the sweater, special precautions and techniques (different from those used on other fabrics) need to be adopted.
In order to obtain an excellent result we therefore recommend that you choose professional embroidery, such as the one you can create with BurgerPrint .
Custom embroidered sweaters are beautiful to look at and very versatile. For example, they can be made as gifts , work uniforms , or a sports team uniform.
Wool, like cotton, is also an excellent fabric for embroidery: it is durable, easy to work with, and its tight weave makes it an excellent canvas for embroidery.

What can be embroidered on a custom sweater?
Digital embroidery allows you to achieve perfect results on sweaters, even on those textures where hand embroidery would be unappealing to look at.
Whether it's a cotton sweater or a blend like cotton/acrylic or wool/polyacrylic , if you follow our advice the final effect will be excellent.
For a piece of clothing like a sweater, we recommend choosing a small design, a text, or a personalized logo. For example, you could create a sweater with a name, a company or sports club logo, letters, or a stylized symbol.
The result will be simple and elegant. You can choose up to three different colors and be sure that the embroidery will withstand countless washes without fading.
The weave, thanks to the use of the digital embroidery machine, is very tight and allows for a raised, compact and above all ultra-resistant work.
Make an embroidered sweater on Burger-print.nl
On our custom clothing site you can choose to embroider the sweater you prefer simply by selecting the model, size and color and clicking " Embroidery ".
You can choose from many models: from V-neck sweaters to crew neck sweaters, from pullovers to buttoned cardigans, from vests to open cardigans.

During the customization process, you can simply upload a design file, which our machines will use to create embroidery that is as true to life as possible.
In this regard, it is essential that the file is vector-based, high-resolution, and at 1:1 scale . You can upload it in PDF, EPS, or AI formats. To ensure that the colors do not vary during the embroidery process, we recommend choosing one of the following color profiles:
- sRGB IEC61966-2.1
- Coated fogra 27
The maximum embroidery size is 9×9 cm and you can choose whether to do it on the front of the sweater, the back, or the sleeves. You can also choose multiple areas based on your needs!
