I still receive inquiries from sewists on the hunt for good sweater knit fabrics by the yard, and I've started browsing online. Below are some options I'm happy to share with you. Whether you're creating a stylish pullover, a statement cardigan, or a cozy vest, these fabrics may be just what you're looking for.
I hope this roundup saves you some time and inspires your next project. If your heart is set on using a particular sewing pattern, I recommend requesting a swatch first to be sure the fabric is right for your intended pattern. But if you're totally in love with a fabric, purchase the fabric while it's available and find the sewing pattern later!
The List
This curated list features sweater knit fabrics from international suppliers on the Etsy site and New York City's Mood Fabrics. The list is an experiment. I have not personally seen or worked with this group of fabrics. Like you, my initial evaluations are from the pictures and written descriptions. If you find the list helpful, I'll update the selections from time to time. Please note these are affiliate ads, which means I earn a small commission at no extra cost to you if you decide to make a purchase. If the brief descriptions sound enticing, click the links for images, full descriptions, and to make a purchase.
