Jersey is a knitted fabric used extensively for clothing. Single knit Jersey has a smooth side and a pile on the other side. Double knit Jersey is smooth on both side with the pile in the middle. The material drapes well and can be quite stretchy, thus it's popularity increased greatly with the boom in swing needle (zigzag) sewing machines. Jersey gets its name from the island, one of the Chanel Islands, where it was first produced.

What is the jersey fabric manufacturing process?

The jersey fabric manufacturing process begins with selecting raw materials, typically cotton, polyester, or a blend. The chosen fibers are spun into yarn, which is then knit using a circular knitting machine to create the characteristic stretch and softness of jersey fabric. After knitting, the fabric undergoes finishing processes such as dyeing, washing, and sometimes adding treatments for enhanced properties like moisture-wicking. Finally, the finished jersey fabric is rolled and prepared for cutting and sewing into garments.
