Rib Knit Jersey Fabric - Classic Flower Natural

Rib Knit Jersey Fabric - Classic Flower Natural

This rib knit jersey shows a scattered small floral print in soft peach and dusty rose tones, with olive green stems and leaves, all set against a warm off-white background. The fine ribbed texture gives the fabric extra body and a subtle vertical structure, while the print itself has a slightly faded, watercolour look that feels romantic without being overly sweet. It reads as a fabric you could use for a whole range of nostalgic, feminine projects, from baby wear to relaxed everyday clothing.

What is Rib Knit Jersey Fabric?

Rib knit, also called drop needle fabric, is a knitted fabric with a distinct vertical rib structure that you can both see and feel. This structure gives the fabric more elasticity and a bit more weight than a standard single jersey, so garments made from it tend to keep their shape well around cuffs, necklines and waistbands. The cotton base makes it soft and breathable against the skin, while the lycra content brings the stretch and recovery you need for close-fitting pieces. You can read more about this fabric family on our rib knit jersey fabric page, including other prints and colourways within the rib knit digital print collection.
