Description

Taupe is the shade nobody can quite name while everybody sees it everywhere: a muted grey-brown getting along beside dusky pink, mustard, terracotta and natural white equally. As a jumper it stays calm, letting accessories shine. This French terry sits in the middle weight, draping softly, suiting cardigans, dresses and jackets. Within natural palettes taupe often becomes the connecting link: coordinating several garments without sewing everything in one colour. Because the range runs colour-matched across Vanessa, Maike, Eike and Heike, a whole outfit can combine several fabric types.

What Maike Taupe is suitable for

Transitional jumpers
Dresses and skirts
Warm shirts

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 676

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.
