Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Carter X. ★★★★★

Made a couple of summer skirts and the white braided elastic kept its shape perfectly through the wash—no twisting or stiffness at all.

Ruby L. ★★★★★

Sewing a swimsuit waistband this weekend and the stretch recovery on this half-inch elastic is exactly what I needed—it holds its shape without feeling stiff or bulky. The ribbed texture grips the fabric nicely as I stitch, no slipping or twisting under the presser foot.

Henry ★★★★★

This braided elastic worked perfectly for reinforcing a pair of loose pajama shorts. The ribbed texture held the fabric in place without twisting, and the stretch is light enough for a comfortable waistband.
