Description

Mottled mint is the soft variant of fresh green: blended fibres remove its clarity, adding depth instead. A jumper in this shade feels spring-like without ever being intrusive. This French terry sits in the middle weight, draping softly, suiting sweat dresses and light jackets equally. Mint belongs among shades never quite disappearing from children's fashion — as a melange the colour works around adult clothing too, where plain mint sometimes reads too sweet. Colour-matched Heike ribbing finishes sleeves and hems in exactly the same tone.

Jumpers and sweatshirts
Sweat dresses
Children's clothing

Sewing tips

Vorwaschen (French Terry läuft stärker ein als Jersey)
Stretch-/Jerseynadel 80, bei mehreren Lagen 90
Overlock oder elastischer Stich, Kanten versäubern weil die Schlingen fransen
Abschlüsse mit Heike-Bündchen im gleichen Farbcode statt Umschlag
bei mehreren Lagen Nähfußdruck runter oder Obertransportfuß
Plots auf die glatte Außenseite, vorher am Reststück testen
links bügeln bei niedriger Temperatur, nicht auf die Schlingenseite

Matching colour code 1263

Frequently asked questions

Which needle and stitch work best?

Sew using a stretch or jersey needle in size 80, moving up to 90 across several layers at a hood or waistband. An overlocker or elastic stitch keeps seams flexible; neaten the edges, since the loops inside otherwise fray.

How does the melange look appear?

The melange comes of finely blended fibres, giving the surface a lively, subtly speckled depth. Garments appear less flat than plain solids, while small sewing irregularities barely show against the moving surface.

What is French terry best used for?

French terry is the fabric of transitional seasons: jumpers, dresses, sweat jackets and children's clothing, whenever jersey feels too thin yet winter sweat too warm. Smooth outside, soft loops inside, it drapes softly from spring into autumn.

How does French terry differ from brushed sweat?

Both are smooth outside; inside they differ: French terry shows fine loops, brushed sweat a raised, fluffy surface. French terry therefore feels lighter and airier, while brushed sweat runs noticeably warmer, belonging rather to winter.
