The whale motif in navy creates a calm, graphic look that suits non-seasonal kidswear ranges. Rib fabric is often used for leggings, blouses and rib knit top-style pieces for layering, where you want a close, substantial quality with good freedom of movement. The quality also works for bodysuits and beanies, where the rib structure provides a flexible fit.

Rib jersey has more body than standard single jersey knit fabric. The ribs create a surface with clear texture and stability, making it easier to achieve a consistent fit in production. This is an advantage when you run multiple colours and prints within the same style program.

The question “printed fabric for children” often asks whether print and stretch can work together. Here, the rib construction helps because the fabric recovers neatly and the print remains uniform in wear.

Fabric shops typically buy this type of print as part of a coordinated shelf with solid colour rib jersey alongside. Smaller producers use it for short runs, where GOTS can be included in product texts and documentation for customers.

Wash at 30 degrees with the fabric turned inside out. Avoid tumble drying.
