The graphic shapes print on a grey base makes this quality easy to integrate into a range where customers request wool with a calm expression. The rib knit makes the fabric suitable for close-fitting tops, undershirts, bodysuits and leggings, where you want a fit that follows movement and still remains stable in wear.

2/1 rib has more “body” than a smooth knit fabric and can provide a little more coverage in the garment. The merino wool contributes warmth and comfort, while the silk content gives a smoother surface and a less matte finish. This creates a print that looks clear without appearing harsh.

Many buyers look for a wholesale fabric supplier when they need to consolidate yardage for both basics and patterned items. This type of rib-knit wool/silk is often purchased by fabric shops offering wool for layering ranges, and by smaller manufacturers producing short runs. The 165 cm width makes it easier to optimise consumption during cutting.

Wash on a wool programme with wool detergent. Avoid tumble drying. Dry flat and avoid heavy mechanical stress so the ribs retain their structure.
