Sewing Elastic NZ
Shop sewing and knitting elastic in New Zealand. Compare flat, fold-over, ballet and hat elastic, plus fine elastic thread and knitting-in strands. Check width or thickness, supplied length and intended method on each listing.
Choose the elastic style, width and supplied length
Choose elastic to match your pattern’s method and required stretch. Flat elastic and fold-over elastic have different constructions; fold-over wraps an edge at its centre crease. Check whether a listed width is measured before folding. Hat and ballet elastic serve their stated specialist uses. Confirm the selected colour and supplied pack length.
Elastic thread and knitting-in strands
Elastic threads and knitting-in strands use different methods. Madeira Elastic is carried with knitting or crochet yarn, not used as needle or bobbin sewing thread. Follow Prym and The Knitting Barber product directions and test tension on a sample. For stretch machine seams, compare sewing thread such as Maraflex. Follow the complete project’s care limits.
