Why We’re Loving Heavyweight Fabrics This Season

As the weather cools and the days get shorter, there’s something so comforting about reaching for fabrics with a little more weight — those cozy, structured textures that drape beautifully and hold their shape.
At Isee Fabric, we’ve fallen head over heels for heavyweight knits — all milled in the USA, crafted from pure cotton, and made to last a lifetime of wear, wash, and love.

These aren’t your average basics. They’re the kind of fabrics that feel substantial in your hands — warm, breathable, and luxurious without being fussy.

👉 Heavyweight Cotton Fabrics Collection

💪 24 oz French Terry
Thick, plush, and endlessly durable — our heaviest terry yet. The face has a smooth, soft finish, while the looped back adds that signature coziness you’ll love in hoodies, sweatpants, and structured loungewear.
Perfect for outer layers, jackets, and even elevated matching sets.

🌿 19 oz Rib Knit
A dream for cuffs, waistbands, and necklines — or even a whole ribbed tee. This weighty rib adds texture and dimension to your sewing projects. With its firm stretch and premium cotton base, it pairs beautifully with the 24 oz French terry.

☁️ 15 oz Cotton Waffle
Our newest obsession — a textured waffle that’s soft, sturdy, and full of vintage charm. It’s the kind of fabric that begs to be touched, perfect for cozy thermals, pullovers, and casual sets.
It washes beautifully, softening with every wear while keeping its structure.

🌾 10 oz 2x1 Rib
A lighter but still substantial rib — ideal for matching tops, leggings, or trim on your heavier knits. It’s got the right amount of stretch and recovery while still feeling grounded and natural.

🖤 9 oz Jersey
Not your typical t-shirt jersey — this one is thick, luxurious, and American-milled. It’s the perfect mid-weight knit to bridge the seasons, working for everything from oversized tees to dresses, sets, and loungewear.


Why Heavyweight Matters

There’s something about heavy cotton that feels timeless.
It resists fast fashion, lasts longer, and gets better with age. Each piece you sew holds its shape, wears beautifully, and brings a sense of intentional craftsmanship to your wardrobe.

These weights also mean you can create coordinating sets that truly feel elevated — waffle and rib together, French terry with matching rib cuffs, or jersey tops that pair effortlessly with your cozy bottoms.


Color Stories We’re Loving

This collection comes in earthy, Pacific Northwest tones that ground your wardrobe in nature:
Pine, Oak, Faded Black, Vintage Cream, Olive and Natural White.
Each color is chosen to mix and match beautifully — whether you love tonal layering or contrast textures for a more modern look.


Sew Your Own Luxe Comfort

If you’ve ever wanted to sew your own premium sweats, thermals, or cozy sets — this is your season.
All our heavyweight fabrics are cut by the yard, so you can create pieces that feel custom, timeless, and made just for you.

Pair them with your favorite Isee Fabric sewing patterns — think barrel pants, vest patterns, or thejuju sweater for those leftover scraps — and you’ll have a handmade collection that feels anything but basic.
