Every fabric, read by its spec.
A vendor-neutral reference for buyers, makers and students — each fabric documented by composition, weight, construction and care, then cross-linked to the materials it relates to.
Know the cloth, not the sales copy
Specs, laid out plainly
Composition, GSM range, weave or knit, finish and care — the measurable facts of each fabric, set out in clean, comparable tables instead of marketing adjectives.
Cross-linked, not siloed
Every fabric links to the ones it relates to, contrasts with or is built from — so poplin leads to oxford, denim to twill, jersey to its stretch blends.
Vendor-neutral by rule
No fabricated GSM, no invented supplier credentials, no undisclosed placement. Ranges reflect typical commercial goods and every figure is sourced.
Featured fabrics
Poly-Cotton Blend
A cotton-polyester blend that trades some breathability for wrinkle resistance, strength and lower cost.
Rib Knit
A stretchy, elastic knit with vertical ridges — used for cuffs, collars and close-fitting tops.
Polyester
The dominant synthetic fibre — strong, wrinkle- and shrink-resistant, quick-drying, but low in breathability.
Nylon
A tough, elastic synthetic fibre with high tensile and abrasion resistance — the fabric of hosiery and packs.
Cotton-Elastane Jersey
A single jersey with a small elastane content added for two-way stretch and shape recovery.
Mercerised Cotton
Cotton treated under caustic tension to gain lustre, strength and better dye uptake — a finish, not a fibre.

Fabric comparisons
French Terry vs Fleece
Both are sweatshirt knits, but French terry keeps looped, unbrushed backs while fleece is brushed to a warm nap.
vs Spec comparisonPoplin vs Oxford Cloth
Two classic cotton shirtings: poplin is a smooth, crisp, formal plain weave; oxford is a softer, textured basketweave.
From a name to a decision
Open a fabric
Start from any fabric or family and get its composition, GSM range, weave or knit, finish and care in one place.
Read the trade-offs
Plain-language guidance on when to choose it, what it costs in drape, durability or breathability, and how it fails.
Follow the weave
Jump to related, contrasting and side-by-side fabrics until you land on the exact cloth your project needs.
Start with a single thread
From poplin to polar fleece — open any fabric for its composition, weight, construction, care and the materials it connects to.
