Remnant measuring 0.43m Every time we see purple we cant help but think of a poem by Jenny Joseph: When I am an old woman I shall wear purple. Our purple cotton ribbing fabric is ideal for sewing cuffs and neckbands and also is a perfect match both to our t-shirt weight purple cotton jersey Unlike 2×1 rib knit fabric, tubular ribbing fabric comes knitted as a long tube or a sock if you prefer, just without the toe bit. To use it, cut the tube open and voila, 70cm wide 1×1 ribbing.
