Fabric description
One of our favourite shades of grey, this tubular ribbing is a perfect match to our organic cotton grey jersey.
Use this tubular ribbing fabric for cuffs, neckbands on jersey t-shirts and jumpers.
Tubular means it is it is knitted in a long tube, like a sock but without the toe bit. To use it, slash the tube and open the fabric. It will measure 70cm wide, so not always possible to use it as a main fabric
Tubular ribbing in comparison to 2×1 rib knit fabric is fairly flat and is little bit thinner due to lack of visible ridges. This makes is perfect option for trims on your t-shirts.
