Fabric for babywear and childrenswear: interlock and fastness priorities

For babywear, fabric choice is a compliance decision as much as a comfort one. Colour fastness and chemical suitability belong in the specification alongside surface softness.

Fabric for babywear and childrenswear: interlock and fastness priorities

Why interlock is the usual choice

Interlock is a double-knit structure: face and reverse look alike, the edges do not curl, and it covers better than single jersey. Those three properties give both easier sewing and consistent appearance in bodysuits and sleepsuits.

Perspiration fastness has to be asked for

Children's product is normally assessed for perspiration fastness alongside wash and rub. Destination-market regulation may add further tests; requirements should be confirmed against current official sources before the order.

Softness against durability

Heavy softening improves hand feel but can affect strength and dimensional stability. Judge the target hand on a sample after washing, not before.
