Chunky 2x2 rib knit available in crimson red. Burn tested synthetic content, likely acrylic. This rib knit is knit in the round with a total length of 35" (17.5" laid flat). Available for order by the yard.

*This knit-in-the-round rib knit is fairly chunky, measuring approximately 2-3mm thick. It has considerable stretch across the grain due to the rib knit and is fairly stable along the grain. Suitable for rib knit trim on cuffs, hems, waistbands, and turtlenecks, or full knitwear garments such as a turtleneck sweater or bodycon dress.

These fabrics are recovered from high-end designers in New York City, sold as a sustainable alternative to destruction and discard in landfill.
