jeux de points

French to English Marketing Textiles / Clothing / Fashion Clothes catalogue
Bonjour,

Je recherche la traduction en anglais de l'expression ci-dessus, dans le domaine des vêtements. Voici la phrase:

"les matières structurées: jeux de points pour la maille, effet ......"

Merci.

Plus de détails pour cette expression Voici l'explication fournie par le client : 'c'est une maille jacquard avec des motifs ressemblant à des points, des lignes et des formes géométriques'. Thanks for your help !
ormiston Jan 5, 2012:
if only Rocmer... would provide the end of the sentence (effet ...quoi ?!) but Askers are often under pressure. Otherwise we are allplaying a guessing game.

Why knitting? Couldn't it be netting, like those dotty veils that adorned women's hats in the 1950s?
polyglot45 Jan 5, 2012:
no problem but a pattern is often a more or less complex arrangement of different stitches....
ormiston Jan 5, 2012:
sorry polyglot didn't mean to sound categorical and you are right. Without more context we do no know if it is a stitch or a pattern.
polyglot45 Jan 5, 2012:
@ormiston and what is "maille" if it is not knitwear ?
ormiston Jan 5, 2012:
sure but this is 'maille' not 'tricot'
polyglot45 Jan 5, 2012:
in knitting a "point" is a stitch (knit, purl...)
ormiston Jan 5, 2012:
it would be helpful to see what comes after "effet" , if it is dotted/speckled / stippled (plenty possibilities at this stage!)
Colin Morley (X) Jan 5, 2012:
Raised (like dots)? jeux de points is used for a dot-to-dot drawing for kids - looking at images I note that for cardigans, etc it seems to depict a raised (chain) type look - This is not my field, but if you can find the right word for this kind of pattern (like on an Arran jersey) you may be on the right track

Proposed translations

(stitch) patterns

more context would definitely help but this may be what you're looking for

1 day 23 hrs

dotted (etc.) pattern (weave)

OK so it's not knitting stitches
This will of course have to be worked into the sentence that follows ("effet....)
