Our fabric library includes 580 jacquard knit options. Contact us for more compositions, weights and colours for your collection.
Jacquard knit fabric carries a pattern that is knitted into the structure rather than printed on top. The knitting machine selects individual needles to place different yarns or stitches, creating motifs in colour, in texture, or in both. Single jacquards are lighter and show yarn floats on the reverse; double jacquards are knitted on two needle sets, so they are fuller and neater inside. In our library, jacquard is one of the largest collections, and half of it weighs 200–299 GSM. Polyester/spandex jacquard leads for dresses, and cotton/polyester for streetwear and trousers. Because the pattern is part of the fabric, it does not crack or peel like a print. Plan for the pattern repeat when cutting and matching panels, and avoid single jacquards with long floats on garments that rub against rough surfaces.
Polyester-based jacquards dominate our dress and skirt qualities, while cotton blends cover the heavier casual and streetwear pieces.
| Fabric type | Fabric examples | Apparel applications |
|---|---|---|
| Polyester/spandex and 100% polyester jacquard | 180–260 GSM, such as A497 (95% polyester / 5% spandex) at 220 GSM | Dresses, skirts, T-shirts and fitted tops |
| Cotton/polyester and 100% cotton jacquard | 190–300 GSM, such as TH38008 (100% cotton) at 190 GSM | Textured T-shirts, streetwear and sweatshirts |
| Cotton/polyester/spandex and polyester/cotton/spandex | 230–330 GSM | Casual trousers, knit jackets and structured dresses |
| Nylon/spandex jacquard | 150–260 GSM, such as KF3219 (75% nylon / 25% spandex) at 250 GSM | Activewear and swimwear designs |
Choose 170–230 GSM for patterned T-shirts and light tops, 200–260 GSM for dresses and skirts, and 260–340 GSM for sweatshirts, casual trousers and knit jackets. Half of the jacquard in our library weighs 200–299 GSM.

Xiwen Zhang, our co-founder and CEO, recommends these jacquard weights and blends for the garments where a knitted-in pattern adds the most value, drawing on our knit fabric experience since 2009.

PATTERN THAT MOVES
For dresses, start with 200–260 GSM polyester/spandex or polyester jacquard. Dresses are the largest use for jacquard in our library. The spandex keeps a fitted bodice comfortable, and a tonal relief pattern adds interest without a print.

TEXTURE INSTEAD OF PRINT
Choose 170–230 GSM jacquard in cotton/polyester or pure cotton for T-shirts. A small geometric or tonal jacquard gives a basic tee a premium look, and the pattern lasts as long as the fabric itself.

BOLD MOTIFS FOR STATEMENT PIECES
220–340 GSM cotton/polyester jacquard works well for streetwear tops and sweatshirts. The heavier double-knit jacquards hold a boxy shape and can carry large, multi-colour motifs that would be costly to print across a whole garment.

STRUCTURE FOR THE LEG
For pull-on and tailored knit trousers, start with 230–310 GSM jacquard in cotton/polyester or polyester/cotton/spandex. A fine texture or tonal check hides creasing and gives the leg a smarter finish than plain jersey.

A KNITTED OUTER LAYER
Choose 260–340 GSM double-knit jacquard for bomber, chore and overshirt-style knit jackets. The double-knit construction keeps the inside neat and gives zips, collars and pockets enough support.

SHAPE WITH A PATTERN
220–285 GSM polyester/spandex jacquard works well for A-line and pencil knit skirts. This weight holds the skirt line over the hips, and the pattern can be matched to a coordinating jacquard top for a set.

LIGHTWEIGHT PATTERN FOR SUMMER
For camisoles and light summer tops, start with 170–250 GSM jacquard in polyester/spandex/viscose or a polyester/linen blend. Open or textured jacquards keep the fabric light while adding a pattern that reads well in solid colours.
Knitted in. A jacquard pattern is formed by the knitting machine selecting needles and yarns, so the motif is part of the fabric structure and does not crack or wash off like a surface print.
Single jacquard is knitted on one needle set and shows yarn floats on the reverse; it is usually lighter. Double jacquard uses two needle sets, so the reverse is neat and the fabric is fuller, which suits jackets, trousers and structured dresses.
Most jacquard dress qualities in our library weigh 200–260 GSM, mainly in polyester/spandex or 100% polyester. Go lighter for summer tops and heavier, around 260–340 GSM, for knit jackets and trousers.
Where a jacquard combines a dark and a light yarn, staining from the darker colour onto the lighter one is the usual risk, so check the staining grades in washing and water fastness, not only colour change. Polyester/spandex dress jacquards at 180–260 GSM also need shrinkage with the drying method stated, and long floats are checked for snagging on a sample garment.
Stock fabric orders start at 1 roll (~23 kg) per colour. Custom-colour orders start at 200 kg per colour.
