Description

Petrol 749 is a deep, muted blue-green that leans more blue or more green depending on the light. It is a calm shade that works all year round, next to natural tones as well as stronger colours.

The jersey feels soft and smooth, with clear crosswise stretch from the 5% elastane and good recovery. At 220 g/m² it sits in the medium-weight range: opaque enough for dresses, yet supple enough for close-fitting patterns. It drapes softly without going limp, so sleeves and hems sit neatly.

The fabric is certified to Oeko-Tex Standard 100 and washes at 30 °C, which makes it practical for everyday children's clothing. Colour code 749 runs true across the matching Swafing qualities.

What Vanessa Petrol is suitable for

  • Shirts and long sleeves, as 95% cotton with 5% elastane gives an elastic knit that feels comfortable against the skin.
  • Dresses and skirts, because at 220 g/m² the jersey is opaque and falls softly.
  • Leggings and baby bodysuits, since the Oeko-Tex certification and the 30 °C wash suit everyday wear.
  • Basics in larger sizes, as the 155 cm width takes wider pattern pieces.

Sewing tips

  • Vor dem Zuschnitt waschen
  • Kombination mit Heike-Bündchen im gleichen Farbcode für Bündchen und Halsausschnitte.
  • Bei Leggings die stärkere Querdehnung um den Körper legen.

Frequently asked questions

Is the petrol jersey opaque?

At 220 g/m² this is a medium-weight quality that is opaque enough for dresses and shirts. The dark petrol shade helps as well, so light underwear usually does not show through.

How much does the fabric stretch?

With 5% elastane the jersey stretches noticeably across the width and springs back well. That makes it suitable for close-fitting patterns such as leggings, bodysuits and fitted shirts.

How do I care for this fabric?

Wash at 30 °C, iron on a low setting, do not bleach and do not tumble dry. This keeps the Petrol 749 shade looking even and preserves the elasticity of the knit.

Do I need to allow for shrinkage?

Yes, residual shrinkage is 5 percent. Wash the fabric once before cutting, using the same care you plan for the finished garment, so the measurements still fit after the first wash.
