Bi-elastic fabric?

Hi everyone,
bi-elastic (jersey) fabric means it stretches in every direction. Does that mean the grainline doesn’t matter when cutting out the pattern?
Thank you so much for your answer.
Best regards, Ina

No, you still have to follow the grainline, because otherwise even two-way stretch fabric will twist at the waist, and the side seam will shift to the front. There’s a good reason why it is the way it is ;-)

Oh, I guess I’ll have to look very closely to see which way the fine stitches run. I’ll need a magnifying glass for that.
Thank you, Inge, for your reply.
Best regards, Ina

Ina, you can tell by stretching it. Bi-elastic fabric stretches more widthwise than lengthwise.
