Description
Terracotta is warm like fired clay, belonging among colours making every grey autumn friendlier. Fine rib sews not only ribbing from it, but complete beanies, loop scarves and headbands as well. The fabric measures approximately 100 cm across, so a short piece covers a beanie and snood together. Since the rib structure stretches, then springs back, such accessories sit closely without pressing — looking almost knitted thanks to that fine rib, while needing a fraction of the time.
What Swafing Heike Fine Rib Ribbing Terracotta 712 is suitable for
- Beanies
- Sleeve cuffs
- Hem finishes
- Neckbands

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 much ribbing do I need?
Sleeve and hem ribbing on a jumper usually takes only a short piece, while hoodies including hood facings or pockets need more. We cut from 0.2 metres upwards, so you can order exactly what your pattern calls for.
Which fabrics match this colour exactly?
Heike is colour-matched to Vanessa, Maike and Eike by Swafing: identical colour code, identical shade. You can combine jersey, French terry or brushed sweat alongside matching ribbing, avoiding any colour deviation at the edges.
Is this ribbing tested regarding harmful substances?
Yes, the fabric is certified according to Oeko-Tex, meaning it has been tested regarding harmful substances. Ribbing sits right against skin at necks or wrists, so that certificate feels reassuring in baby clothes and children's garments.
