Premium charcoal ITY (Interlock Twist Yarn) polyester spandex knit with soft hand,
smooth drape, and consistent stretch recovery. Ideal for apparel that needs fluid
movement, comfort, and opacity — without cling or thin spots.
Why this ITY knit outperforms cheap options
Silky smooth texture
ITY knit is known for a soft, sleek surface that feels great next to skin — far
superior to scratchy, low-grade knits.
Reliable stretch and recovery
Spandex gives stretch plus bounce-back so garments stay shaped after wear and wash.
Opaque coverage
Unlike thin stretch fabrics, this ITY knit stays opaque at normal garment weights.
Common garment frustrations — solved
Thin, see-through knit
Fabrics that lack body make garments look unfinished; ITY knit has enough substance
for confident coverage.
Poor stretch recovery
Some stretch fabrics bag out over time. ITY keeps shape and resists bagging.
Static and cling
Cheaper knits stick to skin or layers. The smooth surface here reduces friction.
Perfect for these projects
Dresses, maxi dresses, and wrap styles
Flowy tops, tunics, and blouses
Leggings, yoga pants, and lounge pieces
Layered outfits and coordinated separates
Activewear that needs comfort and stretch
Fabric features
Material: Polyester + Spandex knit

How to work with this knit
Sewing: Use stretch or ballpoint needles for smooth seams

Care: Wash cold, tumble dry low to maintain softness and shape
Q&A (Quick Answers)
Q: What makes ITY knit different?
A: ITY stands for Interlock Twist Yarn — a knit method that creates a smooth, drapey fabric with excellent stretch and recovery.
Q: Is this fabric see-through?
A: No. This knit is opaque at typical garment weights, so you won’t get sheerness issues.
Q: Will it lose its stretch?
A: No. The spandex blend ensures consistent recovery so the fabric holds shape after wear and wash.
Q: Do I need special needles?
A: Yes. Use stretch or ballpoint needles to prevent skipped stitches and reinforce seams.

I saw an ad for a very expensive tailored blazer made out of a stretch denim and decided to recreate it myself. This fabric was the perfect color, the perfect weight, and the perfect stretch, at a great price! So happy with this purchase!

I made a pair of capri pants for a friend and she loves them. The fabric was good quality and easy to work with.
This was my 8th order from Fabric LA & this leather in particular has become my favorite, the tobacco-matte colored thick leather cut; the color is exquisite & the thickness is premium. Highly recommended. Just don’t buy it all because I love it. Viva la FABRIC LA!!
