Here at Calico Laine, we offer an extensive range of jersey fabrics, including several different types that are versatile and great for all kinds of dressmaking projects. In today's blog post, we'll be talking about a selection of jersey fabrics that we have available both online and in-store, and which are the best to use for projects you might be working on over the cold months this winter. Bamboo Jersey - Our newest product in our jersey fabrics, our bamboo jersey is incredibly soft to the touch and has a wonderful drape to it. It is perfect to use for gathered shirts and skirts, and it has a heavyweight feel. It can also be layered for extra warmth, and we will have more colours available soon. Double Knit Jersey - This type of jersey is the most heavyweight fabric in our jersey range, and it is available in a great selection of colours. It is fantastic to work with and wear, and we suggest using it for anything from smart office-wear dresses to more casual skater skirts, or even accessories such as scarves; being a winter weight jersey, this fabric is guaranteed to keep you cosy. Single Knit Jersey - While a little thinner than our other winter jersey fabrics, our single knit jersey fabrics have a high wool composition and will therefore still keep you warm. They are good to use for anything from plain and simple shirts to more complicated dresses, and, like our bamboo jersey, we will have more colours available for purchase shortly.
