Swafing Vanessa Cotton Jersey Solid Altmint 265

Altmint 265 is a muted, slightly greyed mint green – cool without being sharp, and calmer than a clear mint. On the smooth jersey surface the colour reads evenly and stays quiet even over large areas such as dresses or raglan tees.

At 220 g/m², Vanessa sits in the medium-weight range: the fabric feels substantial in the hand, drapes softly downwards and doesn't form stiff edges. The 5 % elastane gives stretch across the width with good recovery, so cuffs, sleeves and knees keep their shape.

The 95 % cotton content makes the surface pleasant against the skin – something that matters for children's clothes and close-fitting garments. The 155 cm width leaves room for wider pattern pieces. The fabric is certified to Oeko-Tex Standard 100.

What Vanessa Altmint is suitable for

• Shirts, long sleeves and raglan tops, as the medium-weight 220 g/m² jersey drapes softly and wears comfortably.
• Dresses and skirts, since 220 g/m² is opaque enough and the fabric falls quietly downwards.
• Leggings and children's clothes, because 5 % elastane provides crosswise stretch with good recovery.
• Bodysuits and pyjamas, as 95 % cotton keeps the surface skin-friendly and the fabric is Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified.
