What exactly is knitted corduroy jersey

Corduroy, also called ribcord, is a fabric with characteristic lengthwise ribs created by a special weaving technique. In this version, that principle is translated into a knitted jersey fabric, giving you that recognizable corduroy look with the suppleness and stretch of a knit. The wide ribs offer a bold, tactile texture that works for both casual and more polished pieces. Thanks to the blend of cotton, polyester and elastane, the fabric stays breathable, drapes beautifully and recovers well after wear. If you're after corduroy fabric with a bit more flexibility than the classic woven version, this is a great alternative.

Rib direction

The ribs run across the width of the roll, from selvage to selvage. Because of the 4-way stretch and the fluid drape of this jersey, you can often run the rib pattern along the length of your garment too, depending on how you lay out your pattern pieces. Pay close attention when cutting so the ribs end up running the way you want on your finished piece.

Applications and projects
