Ribbed cotton belongs to the knitted fabric structure, which is a cotton fabric with two diagonal lines on it and a 45-degree diagonal line on the left. The front twill grain is obvious, but the back mottled twill is not obvious. The number of warp and weft yarns is similar, the warp density is slightly higher than the weft density, and the hand feel is softer than khaki. And because the fabric is elastic and has a good slimming effect, it is often used to make casual clothes.
Ribbed cotton fabric has the characteristics of alkali resistance, good air permeability, moisture absorption and perspiration, good elasticity, softness, good warmth retention and easy cleaning. However, in the process of wearing, it is easy to wrinkle, deform, fade and shrink, which makes the clothing of threaded cotton fabric difficult to take care of and has poor durability.
Because rib cotton is also a kind of pure cotton, it needs maintenance during wearing. The washed clothes should not be exposed to the sun for a long time, so as not to reduce the fastness of the fabric structure and cause the fabric to fade and turn yellow.
When washing, dark and light clothes also need to be washed separately. Close-fitting clothes should not be soaked in hot water to avoid yellow dry spots.
