Colour: Bendigo black- there is one photo of this fabric in another colour at the end just to show the fabric texture on the back as it is hard to see when black fabric is photographed. The other colour fabric is NOT available and is used purely for illustrative purposes.
Fabric composition: 38% merino, 16% elastane and 46% nylon.
The nylon is used to stabilise the fabric and provide durability. There is more elastane in this merino fabric so there is good stretch one way and a reasonable amount of stretch the other way too. This amount of stretch makes this type of fabric great for form fitting garments like leggings or close fitting tops.
