Description

Cotton jersey is that knit most T-shirts come from: stretchy across its width, stable along its length. Its handle stays soft, dry; its surface smooth.

This one measures 155 cm across, weighing 220 g/m²; its composition reads 95 % cotton plus 5 % elastane. Wash it once before cutting, so its length stays stable afterwards.

Heather pairs readily alongside plain shades; anyone wanting contrast sets it beside something stronger. Sold by metre, so you cut whatever your project takes — leftovers still serve bags, appliqué plus small pouches.

What Vanessa Erika is suitable for

Shirts, long sleeves plus dresses, because this fabric gives across its width, then returns.
Children's clothing, since jersey moves along while dressing, pinching nowhere.
Pairing with matching plain cuffing whenever a neckline wants finishing.

Frequently asked questions

Which needle does this want?

A jersey or stretch needle. Its rounded point pushes stitches aside instead of piercing them — a universal needle leaves small ladders that only show after washing.

Why do cut edges curl?

Because knitted fabric sits under tension along a cut. That is normal, disappearing once an edge gets bound or hemmed. While cutting, let your fabric lie flat rather than pulling it.

Which stitch survives the stretch?

A narrow zigzag, or your machine's stretch stitch. A straight seam snaps while dressing, because it cannot follow. An overlocker works fastest, though nothing requires one.

Should I pre-wash?

Yes, once before cutting. Knits containing cotton draw up slightly during their first wash, which should happen while your fabric remains yardage rather than a finished garment.
