Ribbing

Discover the Vast Range of Ribbing In Many Colours At Spotlight

Ribbing is a textured material categorised by the raised vertical lines - also known as ribs - that are consistent throughout the fabric. This fabric is knitted and stretchy, which makes a number of craft projects possible. At Spotlight, you can explore a range of different designs of ribbed fabric so you can create tops, dresses, gym wear, leisure wear or accessories and also add finishing touches to certain types of garments (think of ribbed cuffs, collars, waistbands and more). Shop our adorable patterned knit ribbing fabric or opt for a more timeless solid colour tone to complete your next DIY project.

The Benefits Of Ribbing Fabric In Your Sewing Project

Because of the way it is made, ribbing fabric has quite a lot of stretch in it, which means you can make it easier to pull a top on over the head or get a nice waistline on a dress, without the need for zips or other closures. This fabric will allow you to gather things such as sleeves into a cuff or finish off necklines and armholes on garments. It is also sometimes used to make tops, miniskirts and dresses.

Sewing With Ribbing Fabric

When sewing with ribbing fabric, it's best to use a zig-zag stitch to ensure the seam stretches with the fabric. You should also make sure to use a walking foot, as this can help prevent the fabric from stretching too much while sewing.
