Benjamin ★★★★★

Finally, a clear elastic that actually stays soft and flat in swimwear seams without adding bulk. It stretches the full three times I need for the leg openings.

Penelope ★★★★★

I’ve been using it to stabilize the neckline seams on my knit tees and it’s so soft you barely feel it through the fabric. It stretches a lot more than I expected and snaps right back, which made sewing those curved areas a breeze. Only gripe is the 5 yards goes fast when you’re doing a few garments

Alexander R. ★★★★★

The 5-yard length was perfect for my project, and I love how the clear elastic disappears in seams for a clean finish. It stretches a good amount without being too stiff, and the thin profile makes it easy to sew through.
