Unique Textiles by Pacific Coast Knitting- Sourcing at WWD MAGIC

I love finding new fabric suppliers.  The raw materials that go into creating fashion is where my interest (and heart) really lies. The first booth I saw the minute that I walked in Sourcing at MAGIC was the Pacific Coast Knitting.  Why? Because it was full of soft, drapey, colorful, and textured knit fabrics.  Upon speaking with the owner of the company, I learned that they are based in California (which I love) however the textiles are created abroad, and the company does custom knitting and dyeing.

The website is a bit lacking but I think it’s worth shooting them an email or giving them a call.  I imagine you can request some samples of their stock.  Sheers, novelties, and burnouts in silks and cashmeres.  Sounds awesome, right?
