Viscose Ponte Knit Fabric with Chevron Pattern
$26.00
Ponte Knit fabric, a soft, firm handed, luxurious Viscose Blend; classic chevron pattern in a colorful array of Red, Orange, Fuchsia and Gold.
Hefty knit (10 ounces) – this is the finest Ponte we have come across, sourced from Italy. Perfect for fall or winter, it has a wonderful memory and pull back.
27% Viscose/68% Polyester/5% Elastic
As one blogger put it: “Ponte is the perfect fabric to have a transformation from elegant to casual”.
Ponte is a thick, double knit fabric design produced on double jersey (Rib or Interlock) knitting machines. It is one of the firm, stable structures of knits with a subtle sheen. This fabric is heavier and thicker than a regular jersey.
Patterns: We love N6748, New Look – a dress that has pleats and a few sleeve variations.
The URSULA PONTE SKIRT from Style Arc Patterns would be wonderful and Even better, it could be part of the TWIGGY KNIT DRESS that they offer (we can help with a match for the blocking).
As one blogger put it: “Ponte is the perfect fabric to have a transformation from elegant to casual”.
Some patterns to exemplify that vibe of multi-occasion garments include the Mason Knit Jacket from Style Arc Patterns – oh what a great garment to make.
Also, try the Ines Knit dress, also from Style Arc Patterns – they have the ponte fabric patterns down pat.
Fabric Appropriate for also a wide range of Shirts/Tunics, straight pants or pleated skirts, wrap dresses – also jumpsuits. Try (again from Style Arc) the Carly Jumpsuit – which you may have to buy second hand because it is unavailable.
Finally a Tunic from Katherine Tilton – a semi fitted pull over – Butterick B6492
The repeat is 18 inches.
