Description

Copper recalls tarnished metal and warm candlelight at once. As ribbing the colour becomes a gift around anyone unwilling to build an autumn wardrobe purely of brown or grey — one narrow strip suffices to make a plain jumper interesting. The fabric runs approximately 100 cm wide, so a short piece covers every edge. Copper also looks lovely on accessories: beanies, loop scarves and headbands in this shade match many jackets, appearing almost knitted thanks to the rib structure.

What Heike Kupfer is suitable for

Sleeve and hem ribbing

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 wide is this ribbing fabric?

The fabric measures approximately 100 cm across. Several ribbing strips fit side by side, which means even a short length covers sleeves, hem and neckline of one complete jumper without running short.

What does fine rib mean?

Fine rib describes the narrow, regular rib structure of the knit. It makes the fabric especially stretchy crosswise while creating that typical firm ribbing handle. Against coarse rib knits, fine rib looks neater, adding less bulk at necks or sleeves.

How firm is this ribbing at 240 gsm?

At 240 gsm the ribbing carries enough substance to hold edges permanently in shape, yet stays soft enough around necklines. It adds little bulk at sleeves, matching jersey and sweat fabrics nicely in weight.
