Rayon, viscose and modal are popular fibers for soft knit fabrics because they can create a smooth hand feel and comfortable drape. They are often blended with cotton, nylon, polyester or spandex to improve performance and price balance.
Why use these fibers
Viscose and rayon can feel soft and fluid, making them suitable for dresses, tops, skirts and loungewear. Modal can add a smooth, refined touch for premium jersey and underwear-related fabrics.
What to confirm
Buyers should confirm GSM, width, shrinkage, pilling, color fastness and stretch recovery. For garments that need structure, rayon or viscose blends can also be used in ponte or double-faced knits.
Sampling before production
Because soft cellulosic fabrics can change after washing or finishing, sample testing is important. Request swatches, wash tests and lab dips before confirming bulk orders.
