textile outfitters,  and just your luck, it's based out of Calgary!

Great place, they do all kinds of fabrics.  I got some Gore-tex from there awhile back to make a thin shell.

google textile outfitters for more info.

yeah, well fabricville, or walmart sells knits.
it'll be really interesting to sew on your home machine though. its kind of annoying. but good times
