Swafing Vanessa Cotton Jersey Uni Dark Grey 285

Dark Grey 285 is a deep, slightly cool grey with no blue cast – a calm shade that sits well next to almost any colour or print. As a plain surface it stays quiet and lets details like panel seams, cuffs or appliqués do the talking.

At 220 gsm this cotton jersey belongs to the medium-weight group: it drapes softly without going limp and keeps its shape while worn. The 5% elastane gives clear crosswise stretch that works around the body and gives way when you pull a garment on – handy for necklines and closer-fitting patterns.

The surface is smooth with a little grip, and the 95% cotton yarn feels dry and kind to the skin. The 155 cm width leaves room for larger pieces. The fabric is certified to Oeko-Tex Standard 100.

What Vanessa Dunkelgrau is suitable for

• Shirts and long-sleeved tops, as the medium-weight 220 gsm jersey drapes softly and gives way thanks to the elastane.
• Dresses and skirts, because the weight is opaque enough and Dark Grey as a plain shade does not show through.
• Leggings and baby bodysuits, since the crosswise stretch moves along and the cotton-elastane blend is skin-friendly and Oeko-Tex certified.
• Plain sections next to printed fabrics, because the neutral dark grey stays calm as a solid.
