Fabrication—Knits, Part 1

Send us feedback about this episode!

A big part of successful sewing, especially when making garments, is making good fabric choices. In this and upcoming "Fabrication" episodes, Janet will discuss different kinds of fabrics, how they are constructed, their characteristics, and techniques for sewing with them. This episode focuses on knits, specifically jersey, rib knits, and interlock or doubleknits. (The world of knits is too big to cover in a single episode!) Learn why knits are different from wovens and when you would want to choose a ponte instead of a jersey. Become an educated consumer and make your fabric choices with confidence!
