Product Description
Bamboo rayon fleece is softer than a baby chinchilla, and that is about as soft as it gets! One side is chinchilla soft fleece, while the flip side is a smooth knit with a nice sheen to it. Needs gentle washing to reduce pilling. Bamboo rayon has many desirable properties, among them excellent absorbency and possible bacterial inhibiting properties. A great fabric to sweat in! Also, it is a sustainable resource, easy and fast growing, needing no pesticides or chemical fertilizers or excesses of water. Our agent for this fabric personally is able to travel to China and make sure the workers operate in a well maintained, healthy and safe environment, are treated with respect, paid fairly and have health insurance, sick and maternity leave benefits, etc.

This is the softest, most buttery-thick natural fabric I've ever seen. Took my Fiber Reactive dye with super intensity. Absolutely wonderful texture after washing and it did NOT lose the softness factor...must have more.

Wow. Made a pair of yoga pants. So so so soft. A bit heavy compared to cotton sweatshirt material, but much nicer.

Very soft lovely material. I don't care for the sheen on the flat knit side, but otherwise I was happy with it. Bamboo takes dye very nicely as well. Thank you!

I made a cowl necked pull-over out of it. It is soft, warm and wonderful to wear in the winter! This fabric takes much more dye than others - so be prepared. I hade to make more in the middle of my project. It also takes longer to dry. I'll definitely use it again.

My first piece of Bamboo Fleece was flawed in the center. I called Dharma and talked to a wonderful person and a new piece was sent out that day. That peice was perfect. Thank you the service is wonderful. Bonnie Barnett

Like sweatshirt material and very soft until washed. Pills terribly but I wanted it for diapering so I didn't wash it gently and I didn't care about the pilling really. Unfortunately it sticks together when wet so it didn't absorb the way I wanted. Would make a great sweatshirt though.

Softest thing on the planet!! Washes nicely, however, it REALLY fills the lint trap! Still soft after washing, but looses its furry underside look and becomes more lumpy and bumpy. For that reason it can't get a 5 rating.

I believe the soft side of this fabric is the softest that Dharma has available.

Been trying to decide between this and the Stretch Cotton Velour 63" about which is the softest available.

The very-soft side on the Bamboo Rayon Fleece is the side that takes the dye better.
