Customer Reviews (4.4 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Natalie ★★★★★

The slight ribbing makes it grip fabric nicely when sewing, and it narrows just enough for a clean waistband finish. Stretched a small test piece and it bounced back perfectly.

Ella ★★★★★

The braided texture holds its shape beautifully when I sew it into waistbands, and it narrows just enough to gather fabric without bunching. I've used it on three pairs of lounge pants and a swimsuit cover-up, and it's still springy after several washes. This is exactly what my sewing kit was missin

Daniel ★★★★☆

I needed elastic for a swimsuit repair and this braided kind worked perfectly—doesn't roll when wet. The 1-inch width was just right for the waistband, and it held up well after a few washes. Only wish it was a bit stretchier for a snugger fit.
