Description

Old mint is mint blended alongside some grey: calmer, dustier, therefore distinctly more grown-up than clear mint green. Beside natural white, sand and dusky pink it fits particularly well while never reading childish. This French terry sits in the middle weight, draping softly, suiting jumpers, dresses and cardigans. Muted pastels have been in demand for years, combining effortlessly among themselves: old mint, dusky pink and natural white together form a coherent family across several garments. Because the range runs colour-matched across Vanessa, Maike, Eike and Heike, a whole outfit can combine several fabric types.

What Maike Altmint is suitable for

  • 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 265

Available in more colours in the Maike series.

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.

What should I keep in mind when washing?

Wash at 30 degrees inside out on a gentle cycle, without bleach, skipping the tumble dryer, then iron inside out at low temperature. Pre-wash before cutting, because French terry shrinks more than jersey does.

Which fabrics match this colour exactly?

Maike is colour-matched to Vanessa, Eike and Heike by Swafing: identical colour code, identical shade. Shirt, jacket and ribbing combine without any colour deviation — practical whenever an outfit uses several fabric types.

How should I finish hems and sleeves?

The neatest finish uses Heike ribbing in the same colour code rather than a folded hem, since that adds less bulk at sleeves or hips. The shade matches exactly, because both ranges share one colour code.
