Knit Fabric Types: Which Is Best for Your Clothing?

The best knit fabric depends on the garment you want to make. Single jersey is a versatile choice for T-shirts, rib knit provides stretch for collars and fitted tops, interlock offers a smooth and relatively stable structure, and piqué works well for polos. French terry and fleece are popular for hoodies and sweatshirts. Fiber content, finished GSM, recovery, and wash performance determine which option actually works best.
