Description

Khaki is the colour of practical clothing: field jackets, cargo trousers, outdoor gear. As ribbing that character transfers instantly onto a sweat jacket or hoodie — making a pattern look sturdier, less playful. Containing 95 % cotton alongside 5 % elastane, this fine rib still stays soft and elastic, tested regarding harmful substances according to Oeko-Tex. Around children's clothing khaki is underrated: grass and sand stains show far later than on light colours, while it matches nearly every pair of trousers.

What Heike Khaki is suitable for

Ribbing on hoodies and sweat jackets
Waistbands on joggers

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.

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.

How should I wash and care for this fabric?

Wash the ribbing at 30 degrees inside out on a gentle cycle, without bleach, skipping the tumble dryer, then iron at low temperature without pulling. Pre-wash ribbing together alongside your main fabric before cutting, so both react identically.
