Common knit frustrations — fixed
-
Sheerness and thin panels
Cheap stretch fabrics can be see-through and weak. This DTY double brushed knit is opaque and substantial at typical garment weights.
-
Scratchy or rough hand feel
Lower quality knits irritate skin. FabricLA DTY is double brushed for luxuriously soft hand and smooth drape.

Stretch that doesn’t recover
Some stretch fabrics bag out over time. Our polyester-spandex blend offers strong recovery so garments hold their shape wash after wash.
