Description
Dark Brown 179 is a deep, earthy brown with no red cast – a calm base shade that carries a whole wardrobe and sits happily next to both warm and cool colours. Across a larger piece the brown reads rich and slightly chocolatey, while seams and folds shade softly rather than sharply.
At 220 gsm this is a medium-weight jersey: it feels smooth in the hand and a little firmer than thin t-shirt knits, drapes with movement without sagging, and keeps its shape thanks to 5 % elastane. The 95 % cotton gives a matt surface that feels pleasant against the skin. The 155 cm width leaves room when laying out pattern pieces, and Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification is a sound basis for children's clothes.
What Swafing Vanessa Cotton Jersey Plain Dark Brown 179 is suitable for
- Good for t-shirts and long-sleeve tops, as 220 gsm gives everyday garments enough body.
- Suitable for dresses and skirts, because the medium weight hangs opaque.
- Works for leggings and bodysuits, since 5 % elastane provides stretch recovery and freedom of movement.
- A solid choice for kidswear, as the fabric is certified to Oeko-Tex Standard 100.
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 this jersey opaque enough for a dress?
At 220 gsm Vanessa counts as a medium-weight jersey and covers reliably in Dark Brown. For dresses and skirts you can skip a lining, even over lighter underlayers.
How stretchy is the fabric?
With 5 % elastane the jersey stretches noticeably across the width and springs back. That makes it suitable for leggings, bodysuits and close-fitting tops.
Will it shrink in the wash?
Residual shrinkage is 5 %. Wash the fabric before cutting so your finished garment keeps its measurements. Washing temperature is 30 degrees.
How do I care for this jersey?
Wash at 30 degrees, iron on a low setting, do not bleach and do not tumble dry. Treated this way the colour and the stretch last through many washes.
