The structure is fine and even, exactly what you'd expect from quality single jersey knit. It's a fabric that invites you to touch it, soft and cool to the feel, with a fluid drape that begs to be made into clothing that moves comfortably against your skin.

What exactly is bamboo jersey

Bamboo jersey is a knitted fabric made from bamboo fiber combined with a small amount of elastane for stretch. The regenerative bamboo fiber gives the fabric its characteristic soft, silky finish and its ability to wick moisture away quickly. This fabric uses bamboo ring-spun yarn instead of open-end yarn. That makes a difference - ring-spun yarn is stronger and more evenly spun, which means the fabric resists pilling, has a smoother surface, and stays looking good longer after washing. Open-end yarn is cheaper to produce but has a less refined structure and is less durable in use, so choosing ring-spun yarn is something you'll notice in the quality you're holding in your hands.
