Everything you need to know about Interlock Fabric
Double-faced fabric, also known as double-knit fabric, is a type of knit fabric made using two sets of needles. This technique creates a fabric that is thicker and identical on both sides. The two layers are connected by interlocking stitches, making the fabric more durable and sturdy compared to single-knit fabrics.
This unique fabric was developed in Germany in the early 1900s and quickly gained popularity due to its versatility and distinct properties. Initially used for underwear and hosiery, double-knit fabric became popular in the 1940s for sportswear and leisurewear.
Today, double-knit fabric is widely used in the fashion industry for various garments, as well as for baby clothes, bedding, and home decor.
