Fiber Options and Construction

Double-knit fabric can be produced in single-fiber constructions — polyester, cotton, viscose, bamboo, nylon — or blended compositions such as cotton/polyester, cotton/acrylic, and cotton/bamboo. The double-faced construction is generally thicker and more stable than single jersey, with better resistance to distortion. This makes it a preferred choice for apparel requiring shape retention: structured dresses, blazers, activewear, and outerwear.

Performance Characteristics

Double-knit fabric can be engineered with mechanical stretch, and spandex blends can provide stronger two-way or four-way stretch for fitted silhouettes and performance applications. The compact, two-layer construction gives the fabric durability and wrinkle resistance, and it maintains dimensional stability through repeated machine washing. Available in a wide color range with custom color development on bulk orders.

Design Flexibility and Dyeing Options

Double-knit can be constructed with the same yarn throughout, or with different yarn types on the front and back faces. Mixed-fiber constructions produce distinct colorations on each side after dyeing and finishing — useful for reversible garments or two-tone design applications. This structural flexibility supports custom development for apparel brands requiring differentiated fabric aesthetics.

Manufacturing Process

Double-knit fabric is commonly produced on double-bed circular knitting machines equipped with two sets of needle beds. The surface layer and back layer are formed simultaneously, with both needle beds working in alternation to interlock the two layers into a single composite structure. This process delivers consistent bonding between layers, resulting in the fabric's characteristic stability, weight, and durability — properties important for apparel construction that requires reliable seam performance.

Applications for Apparel Brands

Double-knit fabric is used by apparel brands and garment manufacturers across casualwear, activewear, and structured womenswear categories. Its smooth, dense surface produces clean cut lines and consistent seam performance in production runs. The fabric's stability and wrinkle resistance reduce handling challenges at the cutting and sewing stages, making it suitable for both small-batch sampling and high-volume bulk production.

Double Knit Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is double knit fabric?

    Double knit fabric is a weft-knitted construction produced using two sets of needle beds, forming interlocked front and back layers in a single pass. It can be manufactured in polyester, cotton, viscose, spandex, acrylic, bamboo, or nylon — including blended compositions. The resulting fabric is denser and more stable than single jersey, with good shape retention. Stretch level depends on yarn, knit structure, and whether spandex is added. OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified options are available. Please confirm certification requirements at the time of sampling.

  • What fiber options are available for double knit fabric?

    Runtang produces double knit fabric in single-fiber constructions including cotton, polyester, viscose, bamboo, and nylon, as well as blended compositions such as cotton/polyester and cotton/bamboo. Spandex can be added to many base-fiber blends to improve stretch and recovery for activewear and fitted applications. Specific fiber content can be developed to meet brand or certification requirements.

  • What is the minimum order quantity for double knit fabric?

    The standard MOQ for custom double knit development is usually 1,000 kg per order. For custom dyeing on available base fabric, MOQ may start from 300 kg per color. Stock options may support lower quantities, depending on availability. Please confirm MOQ, lead time, and color requirements before sampling.

  • What is the difference between single knit and double knit fabric?

    Single knit fabric is produced using one set of needle beds, creating a lighter, more drapey construction with a distinct right and wrong side. Double knit uses two needle beds simultaneously to form an interlocked two-layer structure — the result is a heavier, more stable fabric with consistent appearance on both faces and greater resistance to distortion. Double knit is generally preferred for structured garments, while single knit suits draped or lightweight applications.
