ITY Polyester Spandex Fabric | Purple

ITY Polyester Spandex Fabric | Purple

ITY Polyester Spandex Knit Fabric — Purple

Vibrant purple ITY (Interlock Twist Yarn) polyester spandex knit with a smooth, silky feel, dependable stretch, and strong recovery. Opaque and drapey, this knit is ideal for garments that need flexibility, structure, and everyday comfort without cling.

Why this ITY knit outperforms cheap alternatives

  • Silky smooth surface
    ITY knit has a soft, fluid texture that feels great next to skin — no scratchy, rough fibers.
  • Stretch with excellent recovery
    The spandex blend gives this fabric flexible stretch that bounces back instead of bagging out.
  • Opaque coverage
    Unlike thin stretch knits that can be see-through, this fabric stays opaque at typical garment weights.

Common knit frustrations — eliminated

  • Thin, see-through material
    Cheap knits can be flimsy. This fabric has enough body to support structured garments.
  • Poor recovery/stretch
    Lower quality knits overstretch and don’t recover. This ITY knit holds shape wash after wash.
  • Static and cling
    Low-grade stretch fabrics cling awkwardly. The smooth polyester surface reduces static.

Best for these projects

  • Dresses, maxi dresses, and wrap styles
  • Tops, tunics, and blouses
  • Leggings, joggers, and lounge wear
  • Layered outfits and coordinated separates
  • Activewear and everyday apparel

Material features

  • Material: Polyester + Spandex knit
  • Hand feel: Silky smooth and drapey
  • Stretch: Comfortable 4-way stretch with strong recovery
  • Opacity: Opaque at standard garment weights
  • Color: Rich purple dye — consistent and bold

How to work with this knit

  • Sewing: Use stretch or ballpoint needles for secure seams
  • Cutting: Sharp shears or rotary blade for clean edges
  • Stitching: Narrow zigzag or stretch stitch for flexible seams
  • Care: Wash cold, tumble dry low for softness and shape retention
