Hazel ★★★★★

The horizontal ribs really help this elastic stay flat and not roll when I’m sewing it into the edges of my new swimsuit. It stretched smoothly through my machine without bunching, and the natural cotton color blends in perfectly.

Daniel J. ★★★★★

I’ve been using this elastic for a swimsuit project, and the cotton material feels soft against the skin while still holding its shape well. The horizontal ribs give just the right stretch without being too stiff.

Thomas Z. ★★★★★

The horizontal ribs on this elastic really grip the fabric layers without slipping, which made sewing my swim trunks much easier than with past elastics. It stretches well and should hold up nicely in the water.
