Hemp Bamboo Fleece Knit Fabric

This hemp and bamboo unbleached and un-dyed sweatshirt fleece fabric has a smooth side, jersey like, and a brushed, fuzzy side. It is soft, slightly stretchy, durable and extremely absorbent, and combines the benefits from both components. It is slightly lighter tone than the hemp cotton blend, and it does not carry the hemp specific scent.

It makes great clothing, such as hoodies, jackets, sweatpants, wraps, leg warmers or any other piece of clothing that require a heavier, but soft knit fabric. It is a great material for cloth pads or cloth diapers inserts or prefolds.

It dyes extremely well and softens with use. The eco-friendly aspects of both hemp and bamboo make this a truly natural choice for you.
