Last updated: August 2026 dataKnitted or crocheted construction defines this narrow category, which covers stretch tablecloths, fitted table covers, and similar articles where the knit structure provides the functional benefit of conforming to table edges. Commercially, this segment is smaller than woven table linen but serves event-rental, foodservice, and promotional-products markets where fitted, reusable covers are preferred. As with all knitted textile articles, fabric-construction documentation distinguishing knit from woven substrates supports accurate classification and reduces the risk of reclassification at entry.

The foodservice sector also uses knitted covers for their ease of laundering and snug fit.
Yes. While SITC 65844 groups all fiber types together under the knitted-construction criterion, the US HTS creates separate subheadings by fiber content (cotton, man-made fibers, other), each potentially carrying a different duty rate. Importers should identify the chief-weight fiber and confirm the applicable HTS subheading with a customs broker.
