A fantastic quality cotton sweater knit fabric from the Minerva Core Range collection. Sweater knit is a knitted fabric that resembles hand knitting. It is a much looser knit than a typical jersey fabric, which gives the effect of a hand knit, rather than machine made. This fabric is made from 95% cotton and 5% elastane fibres and it is OEKO-TEX certified which gives it a beautiful softness. It weighs approx. 300gsm which puts it into our medium to heavy weight category here at Minerva. It is ideal for making tops, sweaters, cardigans and dresses. This fabric has a beautiful drape and soft handle, therefore it suits styles of garments that have drape.
