What is difference between lacoste fabric and pique fabric?

Answer 1

Interlock knit fabric is a specific weave of knit fabric. Of the knit fabrics, generally it is the best quality. The front and back of the fabric look the same. It is also the softest. It usually hangs better than cheaper knits, but tends to pile more.

Pique fabrics are a type of dobby construction. Piques may be constructed in various patterns such as cord, waffle, honeycomb and birdseye piques. These fabrics require the addition of extra yarns, called stuffer yarns. These stuffer yarns are incorporated into the back of the fabric to give texture and added depth to the fabric design. Some piques may be made using the Jacquard attachment on the loom. Although made of 100% cotton to-day, cotton-silk and even pure silk versions were made in the past and in a variety of weaves. It is warmer than cotton jersey or rib knit because it is a double knit construction, making it thicker and heavier than a single knit.
