Denim Look Jersey
Love the look of denim but want the flexibility of a knit? Denim look jersey gives you the best of both worlds, with a denim-inspired appearance and the stretch of cotton elastane jersey. It's a versatile option for sewing casual clothing that looks great and feels comfortable to wear.
At Wicked Fabrics, I've curated a selection of denim look cotton elastane jersey fabrics, with OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certified options. The knit construction makes this fabric a useful alternative to traditional woven denim when you're sewing garments that need stretch and ease of movement.

Why choose denim look jersey?
The denim-inspired appearance gives your handmade garments a different look from standard solid jersey, while the cotton elastane blend offers stretch and flexibility. It's worth considering when you want the look of denim without using a traditional rigid woven fabric.
Before cutting, check your sewing pattern's recommendations for stretch, recovery and fabric weight. Denim look jersey is still a knit, so it will behave differently from woven denim and may not be suitable for patterns designed specifically for non-stretch fabrics.
If you'd like to check the colour or feel the fabric before purchasing by the metre, you can order a swatch. Check individual product listings for exact composition, weight and certification details.
