Jersey is a knit fabric used predominantly for clothing manufacture.

It was originally made of wool, but is now made of wool, cotton, and synthetic fibres.

Since medieval times Jersey, Channel Islands, where the material was first produced, had been an important exporter of knitted goods and the fabric in wool from Jersey became well known.

The fabric can be a very stretchy single knitting, usually light-weight, jersey with one flat side and one piled side.

When made with a lightweight yarn, this is the fabric most often used to make T-shirts.

Or it can be a double knitted jersey (interlock jersey), with less stretch, that creates a heavier fabric of two single jerseys knitted together to leave the two flat sides on the outsides of the fabric, with the piles in the middle.

Jersey is considered to be an excellent fabric for draped garments, such as dresses, and women's tops.

A poncho (punchu in Quechua; Mapudungun pontro, blanket, woolen fabric) is an outer garment designed to keep the body warm.

Ponchos have been used by the Native American peoples of the Andes since pre-Hispanic times, from places now under the territory of Bolivia, Peru, and are now considered typical South American garments.
