Knit Fabric Information

A knowledge base for sewing and working with knits.

Single knits or jerseys are lighter weight and have more drape than double knits. They work well for tops and dresses, not as well for pants and skirts. Interlock is a type of double knit that is generally a mid-weight and works well for tops and lightweight bottoms. Double Knit is often a good choice for separates because it has more body and stability than the single knits. Sweater knits are looser weave or novelty stitches and work best for cardigans or tunic tops.
