knit gauge

The coarseness of a knitted garment's stitch, sold as a categorical band (fine, medium, chunky, bulky) — the buyable spec unique to knitwear. A woven shirt has no gauge and a jersey tee is specced by weight, not gauge, so this slot is what marks a sweater as a sweater. Descriptive, not a buyable axis.

Knit gauge is answered with one word chosen from the knit gauges list — the same word shared across every product that uses it.
