Knitwear — weave and neckline
Does the knit pattern itself get drawn?
Knitwear separates by texture more than by shape. Given how poorly the texture tags fared, the question is whether texture baked into a garment name does better.
Every cut below shares one seed, one base prompt and one sampler setting, and differs only by the tag marked in amber.
What each cut shows
turtleneck- The high collar is right; the knit itself comes out smooth.
aran sweater- Cable patterning is drawn into the surface — evidence that texture inside a garment name does land.
cardigan- Button placket and pockets; the open-front construction is right.
sweater vest- Sleeveless, with the shirt beneath showing at the arms — it built the layering.

Takeaway
Texture barely works as a standalone tag and works fine inside a garment name. aran_sweater lands where matte does not.
How far this result reaches
Knit patterning smears when it is small. You need cowboy shot or closer to see it.
