Stockinet is often used for clothing because it's comfy and adapts to body shapes.

Clothing Material

Its stretchiness means stockinet is great for items needing flexible fit, like gloves or hats.

Adaptability

Stockinet fabric can easily get caught on sharp objects, so handle with care.

In medicine, stockinet is used to protect skin beneath casts or splints.

A stockinet bandage acts as a cushion and prevents chafing against the skin.

Stockinet bandages are tubular, making them easy to slide over limbs and joints.
