Choose a medium weight knit fabric with 30 - 50% stretch. Sweatshirt jersey, terry, teddy or even light neoprene are all good options.
For the neckline, cuffs and hem, pick a rigid knit that has a good recovery and 30 - 50% stretch. A firm rib knit is ideal. Our sample was made of mesh neoprene, with cotton rib knit for the ribbings.
