Description

As a melange, dusky pink gains further depth: finely blended fibres make the shade look lively, removing its last trace of sweetness. Against grey or natural white sweat fabrics it creates a finish looking soft while staying grown-up. At 240 gsm this fine rib holds its shape even when necklines get stretched daily. Mottled ribbing suits mottled outer fabrics particularly well — the lively surface then continues across a whole garment instead of ending abruptly at an edge.

What Heike Altrosa is suitable for

Frequently asked questions

How do I cut ribbing correctly?

Cut the strip crosswise to the selvedge, where the stretch runs, then fold it lengthwise along the crease. Rule of thumb: neckbands about two thirds to three quarters of the neckline, sleeve or hem bands slightly shorter than the circumference.

How does the melange look appear?

The melange comes of finely blended fibres, giving ribbing a lively, subtly speckled depth. It suits mottled sweat fabrics particularly well, letting edges appear less flat than plain solid ribbing would.

What is fine rib ribbing used for?

Fine rib ribbing gives sleeves, hems and necklines a tidy finish. The elastic rib springs back after stretching, so edges on hoodies, sweat jackets or joggers sit firmly without pinching, keeping their shape through many washes.

How elastic is this ribbing containing 5 % elastane?

A share of 5 % elastane gives the fine rib structure extra recovery: the ribbing stretches widely, then springs back into shape. Sleeve or neck edges therefore never bag out, even on children's clothing that gets pulled on every day.
