&nbsp;Such as Sweaters Knits, Double knits, Interlock, Tricot, and&nbsp;Fleece.&nbsp; Normally these fabrics are not meant to stretch&nbsp;lengthwise.&nbsp; Perfect for sweatshirts, hoodies, sweatpants, t-shirts, dresses, skirts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>50% stretch<\/strong> is a moderate amount of stretch in a knit:&nbsp; Used for fitted outfits such as t-shirts, dresses, pants without zippers, tops, and flared outfits because of the great drape ability in tops, skirts, and dresses.&nbsp; Many jersey knits have a 50% jersey.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>75% stretch<\/strong> is considered very stretchy fabric and will be best used in active-wear.&nbsp; Sports Bras, Fitted T-shirts, fitted yoga wear, cycling. Four-way stretch&nbsp;knits are mostly found with this percentage of stretch.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>100% stretch<\/strong> in a fabric is normally known as a high-performance fabric.&nbsp; This type of fabric has a percentage of spandex (15 to 50%)&nbsp; Best use as swimwear.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class='code-block code-block-1' style='margin: 8px auto; text-align: center; display: block; clear: both;'>\n<script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block;
