Rib Knit Fabrics

Rib knit fabric is a stretchy knit with a distinctive vertical stripe texture, created by alternating knit and purl stitches. Often, the ribbing appears on both sides of the fabric, making it reversible. Rib knits are soft, elastic, and comfortable – ideal for fitted garments, baby clothing, tank tops, dresses, and cuffs or waistbands.

These fabrics can be made from cotton, polyester, viscose, or blends, and are available in various rib widths and spacings.
