Ponte Knit Fabric by the Yard – Structured, Stretchy & Stylish Explore our collection of Ponte knit fabric by the yard, the perfect blend of structure and stretch for creating polished, comfortable garments. Also known as Ponte de Roma, this double-knit fabric is made with polyester, rayon, spandex, or cotton blends, offering a smooth surface, firm drape, and excellent recovery. Ponte knits are ideal for sewing blazers, dresses, skirts, pants, leggings, and structured tops that require a stable knit with a refined look. The medium to heavyweight feel provides a tailored silhouette while maintaining the ease and flexibility of a stretch knit. Available in classic solids and modern prints, Ponte fabric is a favorite for both professional attire and everyday wear, combining the best of comfort and style in one fabric. Ponte knit fabrics are made with a double knit and are often heavier than their cousin, the jersey knit. This versatile fabric is better for more structured knit fabric projects such as exercise clothes or form-hugging dresses. We especially love ponte knit for leggings since its thick, structured nature keeps you warm and comfortable while holding shape and allowing for a full range of movement.
