Knit Fabrics
The term 'knit' has to do with the fact that these fabrics are made of a single looped yarn, which is knitted together, rather than a woven fabric, which is made from a criss-cross of warp and weft yarns. What this means for the seamstress (and the wearer), is that these fabrics have a much greater degree of flexibility and drape, making them perfect for t-shirts, infinity scarves, and more fitted garments.
Over the past few years, the comfort and flexibility of knits have made them incredibly popular for all sort of inventive tops, dresses, and more. Just look up 'patterns for knits' online to see the plethora of possibilities!
