COTTON RIB KNIT FABRIC WITH ELASTANE - COCONUT CREAM - 250 GSM

COTTON RIB KNIT FABRIC WITH ELASTANE - COCONUT CREAM - 250 GSM

Cotton rib knit fabric with spandex in coconut cream is well suited to projects where a calm color palette and a distinct ribbed texture matter. This light, creamy shade creates a visually soft base without a completely smooth surface. The 10x6 rib construction gives the knit character, making it suitable not only for trims but also for larger garment sections where the ribbing is intended to be a visible part of the design.

Stretch recovery that helps maintain shape

The addition of 3% spandex supports the fabric's stretch and its return to its original shape. The fabric stretches in one direction, remains stable, and resists losing its shape, making it a good choice for closer-fitting styles and areas that need to maintain a neat appearance. Its soft, gentle, substantial hand also means the ribbing does not feel like a stiff, technical trim.

Coconut cream rib knit for everyday and athletic styles

This knit can be used to sew a top, T-shirt, long-sleeve shirt, tunic, or simple dress. Its stretch recovery also makes it suitable for leggings, athletic tops, and yoga and workout clothing. In children's designs, it can serve as the base for a bodysuit, sleeper, T-shirt, or dress, while its full opacity gives you flexibility when using it for larger garment sections. It is also a practical fabric for underwear when you want a soft hand combined with a distinct texture.

Coconut cream rib knit pairs well with earthy beige and latte to create a light, calm palette. Black gives it a more graphic look, while fjord blue creates a fresher contrast. Powder pink can add warmth to the overall look and work well in softer children's or everyday collections.

Substantial ribbing that gives garments a more defined shape

This version works best where the ribbing is intended to define the shape clearly: in fitted sections, bands, or areas that need to maintain a clean line. Its substantial feel comes from its weight of 250 GSM, while 3% spandex supports the fabric's stretch recovery. The 110 cm width works well for smaller, narrower pattern pieces. The matte, ribbed surface and silicone finish maintain a soft, understated effect despite the more compact structure.

How to care for this knit

This rib knit is easy to wash and does not require complicated care. It has a low tendency to wrinkle, retains its color and shape well after washing, and has low shrinkage to help the finished garment maintain its shape.
