Knitted Elastic | 75 mm - 3"

I used this 3-inch white elastic for a dance costume waistband, and it kept its shape perfectly through a full weekend of performances. The width is exactly as described and made sewing it in place super straightforward.

The knit is dense and sturdy, so it holds its shape nicely in a waistband without feeling stiff. I used it for a pair of wide-leg pants and the 3-inch width gave plenty of support. Sewing through it was easy, even with a regular needle.

I was worried the 3-inch width would be too stiff, but it's actually really flexible and comfortable against the skin for thick waistbands. The black color is deep and consistent, and the knitted texture gives it a nice stretch that holds its shape well after washing.
