D. I will need to buy a single ply of fabric to make the shirt is the correct answer.

Explanation:

As a noun, the word ply might mean the following: 1) a layer; 2) a layer of reinforcing fabric for a tire; 3) a unit of yarn; 4) one of the sheets of veneer that are glued together to make plywood; 5) plywood; 6) bent, bias, or inclination.

In the first option, ply means to keep supplying something (verb.)

In the second one it means to pass over or along (verb).

In the third one, it is used as ver to express hard work with something.

The only option that uses the word ply is letter D.
