Elastic is an important product within our Haberdashery range here at Calico Laine. Elastic is a popular item with our customers due to its many uses when Dressmaking, using for crafts or for jewellery making. Elastic is a flexible and stretch fabric that comes in many sizes and is made from rubber and is usually covered in either Polyester, Nylon or Cotton. When it comes to Elastic within Dressmaking it is great for different tasks including placing it in the hem of trousers, the waistband of skirts and many more. Elastic gives you a great comfort when in clothing as it loosens the tightness of certain fabrics.
