COTTON INTERLOCK KNIT FABRIC WITH ELASTANE - COCONUT WHITE - 175 GSM

COTTON INTERLOCK KNIT FABRIC WITH SPANDEX - COCONUT WHITE - 175 GSM

Coconut white has a warm, gentle tone that suits Supima's soft, matte surface. The knit is gentle to the touch, resilient, and lightweight, while 10% spandex gives it good recovery. At 175 GSM, the fabric drapes well across a larger piece while remaining comfortable as a first layer.

Surface, hand, and construction

This keeps the light color understated and well suited to simple, restrained shapes. The fabric moves freely and recovers well when released. Simple, carefully finished shapes work particularly well with the light color.

Drape, opacity, and comfort

The addition of spandex is clearly noticeable during stretching. The surface is even, soft, and free of strong shine. Across a larger area it looks good on a smooth surface, working best where attention is focused on the shade itself and the knit's soft drape. The interlock drapes softly while also holding its shape well. The coconut white knit is slightly sheer, especially when stretched. The fabric is pleasant against the skin, breathable, and lightweight, making it suitable for more delicate pieces worn directly against the body as well. The interlock's stability makes accurate cutting easier.

Uses in finished styles

In a blouse, top, or dress, this provides a pleasant combination: the fabric moves freely while larger pieces still look even. T-shirts, tops, blouses, and simple dresses make good use of the soft drape and resilience. The fabric can also be used for lightweight activewear if the cut actually makes use of its stretch.

Cutting, sewing, and finishing

At necklines, curved openings, and fitted pieces, test a sample seam under stretch so that the finished join retains the knit's softness and resilience. During cutting, the stable surface helps maintain control over the line and align the cut pieces accurately. For fitted styles, check the effect with a double layer or the intended underwear. For larger pieces, start with the body or longest piece, then arrange the sleeves and details. Reserve the remaining scrap for testing a hem and neckline finish, especially because a light surface shows multilayer areas more clearly. The silicone finish further emphasizes the soft hand.

Care and durability

After washing, the knit retains its shape, while low shrinkage helps maintain dimensions. The surface has a low tendency to wrinkle. Resistance to pilling, abrasion, stretching out, and frequent washing is useful during regular use.
