No. Interlock can be knitted in polyester, including jacquard qualities. Specify [cotton](/materials/cotton) or [polyester](/materials/polyester) and each fibre percentage in the brief. ### What GSM should I specify for interlock? Use the finished weight of the selected swatch, with a tolerance. We source plain interlock qualities to your garment brief. ### Do you supply interlock babywear? Yes. Send the babywear size chart and label details, with the care conditions and required fabric tests. ### Can you supply interlock for a summer or winter range? Yes. We select qualities for your seasonal range. State the season and the thermal or air-permeability requirements with the garment brief. ### How does interlock differ from piqué for a polo? Single [piqué](/materials/pique) has a visible micro-mesh texture and uses a single-knit construction. Add a fabric reference to the polo brief. ### How do I get an interlock fabric price? Send the fabric reference, weight, metres and target price for a fabric quotation. For a garment quotation, include a garment reference or tech pack and quantity. ### Can I buy interlock fabric on its own? Yes, by the metre.
