Description
Knitwit Rib Trim is ribbing used for cuffs and neck bands.
65% Polyester/35% cotton 130cm wide
The ribbing is usually dyed to match almost all our Knitwit Fleece Knit Fabric colours.
The various images shown are the Knitwit Fleece Knit Fabric colours.
You can match this rib trim with any of our other plain fabrics, but the match may not be perfect. Also a suitable colour may not be available at all.
The use of a contrasting rib trim is another option in many cases.
Minimum order 30cm – ordered as 0.3(m)
Sewing with Jersey Knit Fabrics
- For jersey knit fabrics, we use and recommend Gutermann Sew-All Thread, a top quality 100% polyester thread. it is available in a huge range of colours to match your fabric.
- You will need stretch needles for sewing knit fabrics. Use Schmetz Stretch needles – 75/11 on fine knit fabrics, and 90/14 on other knit fabrics.
- Start each new project with a fresh needle, especially if the fabric contains cotton or wool. Blunt needles can leave holes on the stitching line.
- Vliesofix Bondaweb Tape is a must if you want to get more professional looking hems and neck edges.
