Description

Red 638 is the darkest among the Heike reds: saturated enough to read clearly as red, deep enough to look grown-up. Against anthracite, dark grey and natural white it creates a calm, premium finish that never resembles team kit. Containing 95 % cotton alongside 5 % elastane, this fine rib stays skin-friendly and elastic, covered by Oeko-Tex testing across the range. Through December this red sews festive clothing simply worn on into January — an advantage over clear Christmas red, which quickly reads seasonal.

What Heike Rot is suitable for

Beanies
Sleeve cuffs
Hem finishes

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 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.
