What makes this bamboo jersey special

This fabric is a single jersey knit made from bamboo fiber blended with a small amount of elastane, giving you a comfortable 4-way stretch in all directions. Bamboo is known for its breathability and soft hand feel, and you'll notice that right away when you run this fabric through your fingers. For this quality, Ring-Spun yarn has been used instead of open-end yarn, and it really does make a difference. Ring-Spun yarn is spun tighter and more evenly, so the fibers are better aligned. The result is a stronger, softer and smoother yarn that resists pilling and has a finer appearance than fabrics made with open-end yarn.
