A beautifully textured cotton rib knit featuring fine chocolate-brown and cream stripes. The closely spaced vertical ribs create a distinctive dimensional surface, giving this fabric a classic, slightly retro sportswear feel.
With its rich brown tones and contrasting lighter stripes, it’s an excellent choice for creating those effortlessly stylish zip-up knit tops and casual everyday layers.
Hand & Drape
At approximately 260gsm, this is a substantial medium-weight cotton knit with pronounced ribbed texture.
The fabric has stretch across the width, allowing for comfortable movement while maintaining the characteristic appearance of a structured rib knit.
Its weight gives it enough body for casual knit jackets and pullovers without the stiffness of a woven fabric. The raised ribs add texture and visual depth to the surface.
Suggested Projects
Especially suitable for retro-inspired quarter-zip pullovers, zip-up knit tops, casual sweatshirts, and relaxed knit jackets.
It would also work beautifully for a sporty collared pullover, a simple cardigan, or a comfortable long-sleeved top.
The chocolate-brown stripes make it particularly appealing for vintage-inspired sportswear and everyday layering pieces.
