COTTON 2X1 RIB KNIT FABRIC WITH ELASTANE - APRICOT - 350 GSM

COTTON 2X1 RIB KNIT FABRIC WITH ELASTANE - APRICOT - 350 GSM

Apricot 2x1 cotton rib knit with spandex brings warm color to a design while remaining easy to use in everyday styles thanks to its matte surface. The regular ribs give the shade a more distinct texture and look good in both small details and larger areas.

Apricot color that warms up a distinct rib structure

The warm apricot shade softens the knit's more compact construction and pairs well with the regular 2x1 knit structure. The fabric is resilient, stretches in one direction, and recovers its shape well after stretching. Full opacity allows it to serve as the main knit in a simple style, while the matte surface keeps the color more understated.

Apricot rib knit in women's, children's, and athletic designs

In an everyday wardrobe, the fabric works well for shirts, tops, and T-shirts, and for closer-fitting designs it can also be used for leggings and shorts. For the athletic part of a collection, it also works well for tops, leggings, and clothing for dance, fitness, and yoga. When sewing for children, the rib knit can be used for bodysuits, while a small accessory in the same fabric helps maintain a cohesive look. This makes it easier to build a range with a cohesive yet distinctive character. On a larger piece, the ribs can become the style's main feature. In a smaller detail, the same fabric helps tie several styles together. The texture therefore works with the cut as well as the finishing details.

Apricot rib knit pairs naturally with cream, powder beige, and warm white. Coffee brown creates a more earthy combination, while powder pink allows a warmer palette based on similar tones.

Substantial knit for styles with a simple cut

This weight gives the knit a fuller structure than lighter rib knits. The composition is 94% cotton and 6% spandex. A width of 105 cm makes it convenient to plan bands and smaller garment pieces. The knit has enzyme and silicone finishes that work well with the rib structure. In apricot, the fabric's durability includes resistance to frequent washing, pilling, abrasion, and stretching out.

How should apricot rib knit be cared for?

Once sewn, the knit retains its shape and requires no complicated treatments. Its low tendency to wrinkle makes it easier to maintain the sewn garment's shape even with regular use. Apricot rib knit is easy to care for and retains its shape and color well, while low shrinkage helps maintain the finished garment's proportions.
