Description
Purple as a melange loses the sweetness plain purple sometimes carries: blended fibres break the colour open, letting it read more grown-up. As ribbing the shade suits grey, anthracite and natural white particularly well. Containing 95 % cotton alongside 5 % elastane, this fine rib stays skin-friendly, covered by Oeko-Tex testing across every colour here. Purple returns in waves through children's fashion; mottled, it becomes the more wearable version — also around adults liking colour without wanting pastel at a neckline.

Frequently asked questions
Which needle and stitch work best?
Sew using a stretch or jersey needle in size 75 to 80, moving up to 90 across several layers at a hood or waistband. An overlocker or elastic stitch keeps the seam flexible, while a straight stitch snaps as the garment is pulled on.
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.
