French Terry (2-Thread)
French Terry — The base of sweatshirts
French terry (2-thread) is the base of sweatshirts, tracksuits and hoodies with its diagonal knit structure. We produce brushed (fleece-back) and unbrushed options in weights for every season.
Key Features
- Brushed (fleece-back) / Unbrushed
- Diagonal knit structure
- Open-end & ring yarn qualities
- Seasonal and winter weights
French terry is a versatile knit with a flat face and a looped back. The unbrushed version offers a light, breathable feel for spring-summer collections, while the brushed version provides warmth and softness for autumn-winter products.
At RT Tekstil we keep the diagonal knit stable to minimise shrinkage after washing, offering an even surface suitable for printing and embroidery.
