**Material**  
39.9% viscose / 21.2% acrylic / 17.7% polyester / 14.4% cotton / 3.7% wool / 3.1% elastane

**Why choose it?**  
The soft, wool-like feel and substantial weight create a comforting presentation, while the pronounced stretch allows pouches to flex around their contents. Its ribbed surface adds understated visual interest. The colors range from gentle neutrals and muted pastels to deeper shades.

**Things to consider**  
High stretch makes this fabric less suitable when a bag needs to hold a fixed shape. Heavier contents may pull it out of shape, so consider a lining or reinforcement where stability matters. Its thickness also adds bulk around seams and gathered drawstring openings.

**Customization options**  
Custom dimensions, drawstrings, zippers, linings and sewn labels can be considered, subject to supplier confirmation. A woven label provides clear branding against the textured ribs. Printing and embroidery should be sampled to check how they behave when the fabric stretches. A nonstretch lining will limit the finished bag’s flexibility.

**Best suited for**  
Soft drawstring bags, clothing pouches, reusable gift bags, lightweight accessory pouches and tactile presentation packaging.
