Golden yellow is sunshine on the bolt: a warm, saturated yellow delivering exactly the right dose of good mood through dreary winters. Children beam in this shade — plus rainy-day photos win instantly. The brushed sweat makes sun yellow winter-ready: 245 gsm, softly raised inside, plus the stretch children's clothing demands. Golden yellow looks loveliest next to calm neighbours: grey, dark blue plus natural white let it glow without dazzling. Mustard plus ochre of the same colour family build harmonious tone-in-tone looks — plus fox or sunshine motifs suit this ground perfectly anyway.

- Joggers
- Warm children's clothing
Sewing tips
- Vor dem Zuschnitt waschen. Angerauter Sweat läuft stärker ein als Jersey
- Stretch- oder Jerseynadel in Stärke 80 bis 90, der Stoff ist dicker als Jersey.
- Overlock oder elastischer Stich. Die angeraute Innenseite fusselt an den Kanten, Schnittkanten deshalb versäubern.
- Bei mehreren Lagen, etwa an Kapuze und Taschen, Nähfußdruck verringern oder Obertransportfuß nutzen, damit nichts verschiebt.
- Säume und Abschlüsse mit Heike-Bündchen im gleichen Farbcode statt mit Umschlag, das trägt weniger auf.
- Links bügeln, niedrige Temperatur, die angeraute Seite nicht direkt bügeln.
- Fadenlauf beachten: die Dehnung läuft quer, für Hoodies und Hosen um den Körper legen.

Frequently asked questions
Is this fabric tested regarding harmful substances?
Yes, this sweat is certified according to Oeko-Tex, meaning it has been tested regarding harmful substances. Especially in children's clothing, or anything worn directly against skin, that certification feels reassuring while sewing as well as gifting.
How stretchy is this fabric containing 5 % elastane?
The elastane content gives this sweat a pleasant crosswise stretch without bagging out. Cuffs, hoods plus sleeves keep their shape, so finished garments stay comfortable through many washes — especially important in trousers or children's clothing.
What should I keep in mind when washing?
Wash this sweat at 30 degrees inside out in a gentle cycle, without bleach, skipping the tumble dryer. Pre-wash before cutting: brushed sweat shrinks more than jersey, so allow up to 5 % shrinkage in your fabric calculation.
What is brushed sweat fabric best used for?
Brushed sweat is the classic choice when sewing hoodies, sweat jackets, joggers or warm children's clothing. The softly brushed inside keeps you noticeably warm, making Eike the go-to fabric in autumn or winter projects that should be comfy yet durable.
