This is more goopy and drapey than I was hoping, and didn't feel as high quality as the price. Sad that I bought 5 yards! It will be comfortable but I've used better bamboo/rayon knits from vogue before and was disappointed in the quality. Seems like it will pill and you can see the shiny spandex when you stretch it. Not sure I want this on my butt without anything over it.... Would not use for leggings.

Hi Catherine,
Thank you for your purchase. I'm sorry you didn't like the fabric. It is from Telio & Tie in Montreal, and we have carried their Bamboo line for nearly a decade. It is very lightweight with a lot of stretch and drape, ideal for ruched tops and wrap dresses. It is not heavy enough for leggings. For leggings we recommend the ponte knits which have more body. Please contact Customer Service if you need a recommendation. On our site, "supple" pontes have drape and a soft face, while "firm" pontes have more body, making them ideal for knit jackets and sheath dresses.
Cheers,
Rogie - Owner
