A flexible spacer fabric 1, the fabric having a liquid permeable and breathable upper surface layer 2, a heat and liquid dissipating spacer layer, and a dimensionally stable lower surface layer, the upper surface layer comprising a warp knitted mesh comprising sinusoidal mesh strands 3 extending in parallel across the upper face of the fabric, said strands being spaced apart and linked at adjacent points by one or more straight threads 6 forming holes, bounded by the mesh strands and threads, of generally oval shape, wherein the average width of the mesh strands in the upper surface layer is from 0.1 mm to 4 mm. The upper surface layer may be knitted from multifilament synthetic yarn. The fabric may be used to make a cot mattress cover. |
