Waffle Knit Jersey Fabric

Waffle Knit Jersey Fabric by the Metre

Waffle knit jersey fabric is one of those fabrics you recognise the moment you touch it. The honeycomb structure isn't printed on, it's knitted into the fabric itself, which gives it that characteristic texture and slight elasticity. This waffle knit jersey is made from 100% cotton with a compact yarn, weighing in at 300 g/m2, so you get a fabric that holds its shape wash after wash. Whether you're sewing loungewear, children's clothing or home textiles, this is a fabric that adds both texture and durability to your project.

Solid Colours and Digital Prints

The waffle structure looks good on its own, but we also offer it in a range of finishes. In solid colours, the texture really speaks for itself, ideal if you want a clean, understated look without distracting patterns. For something more playful, the digital print versions combine the tactile waffle surface with colourful designs, which works particularly well for children's garments or statement pieces where you want the print to stand out against the textured background.

Why Choose This Fabric

Waffle knit jersey earns its place in a fabric collection because of what it does structurally. The compact cotton yarn gives it enough body to hold seams well, while the knit construction still allows for a bit of give, making it comfortable to wear. At 300 g/m2 it sits somewhere between a lightweight jersey and a heavier sweatshirt fabric, which is exactly why it works so well for:

• Children's clothing, thanks to its softness against the skin
• Loungewear and pyjamas where texture and comfort matter
• Home decoration items such as cushion covers or throws
• Layering pieces where a bit of structure is welcome

Ordering and Availability

You order this waffle knit jersey by the metre, so you only buy what your pattern actually needs. Got a smaller project in mind? We keep fixed remnants and coupon pieces on hand too, handy if you just need a metre or two for a test piece or a small decoration item. Not sure yet how the fabric feels or drapes? Order a fabric sample first before committing to a larger cut, always a sensible step when texture is this important to the final result.

Working on a bigger production run? From 6 metres onwards you get access to our wholesale pricing, which makes this fabric a practical option for small businesses and studios as much as for home sewists. Delivery runs from our warehouse in Tilburg, with quick handling on both retail and bulk orders.

Looking for Something Different

If the waffle texture isn't quite what you need, our jersey fabrics range has plenty of alternatives worth a look. Rib Knit Jersey Fabric gives you a similar textured feel but with a different rib structure, while Ottoman Rib Jersey Fabric offers a bolder, more pronounced ridge. For something with more shine, Jersey Glitter Fabric adds a decorative touch, and Knitted Corduroy Jersey Fabric brings a classic corduroy look in a stretchy knit. If natural fibres are your priority, Bamboo Jersey Fabrics is worth exploring as well.

In Short

Waffle knit jersey fabric combines a distinctive textured surface with the practicality of 100% cotton, making it a solid pick for clothing and decorative projects alike. With solid colours, digital prints, sample options and wholesale pricing from 6 metres, there's flexibility for both hobby projects and larger production runs.
