Jersey fabric today
Within no time, jersey fabric made its way into apparel categories as diverse as evening wear, blouses, and, perhaps most notably, T-shirts. While other applications of jersey have remained largely contained within niche categories, the T-shirt is one of the most ubiquitous types of garments on the face of the planet. If you’ve ever worn a T-shirt, you’ve worn jersey fabric, and you know from experience just how soft and breathable this fabric can be.
One of the most notable changes to jersey that occurred as this fabric became an international superstar is the type of material it most commonly contains. Back when knitters on the Channel Islands were responsible for the entirety of the world’s jersey supply, this fabric was made exclusively with wool. These days, however, cotton is the most common jersey material, and this fabric also frequently contains synthetic fibers.
Fabric Uses
We use single jersey fabric for t-shirts, top and leggings. This is because the material is very breathable, soft, smooth. It doesn’t stay locked between the garment and the skin. It is a popular option for regular t-shirts.
