Description
French terry is the fabric for hoodies, sweat jackets and children's clothes worn all year round. 290 g/m² at 155 cm wide: calculate your yardage from the width, not from the pattern alone. Material: 95 % cotton and 5 % elastane.
A fabric in Black reads festive or everyday, depending on what you make from it. The brushed inside sheds at cut edges; finishing them is therefore not an optional step. If unsure, order a little more — a later order may come from a different batch. A sample answers more questions about handle and drape than any description.
What French Terry in Black is suitable for
- dresses and tunics
- blankets and cushions
- jumpers

Frequently asked questions
Do I have to pre-wash?
Yes, especially with brushed goods. Sweat shrinks more than jersey, and on a finished hoodie that cannot be corrected. Wash it the way the piece will be washed later.
Why does the inside shed?
Because fibres lie loose at the cut edge. That settles after finishing and the first washes. If you want none of it, finish the edges straight after cutting.
May sweat go in the dryer?
If the care label allows it. Brushed goods turn softer in a dryer but shrink more. If you plan to tumble dry, do it once before cutting.
Is sweat only a winter fabric?
No. The lighter unbrushed version wears all year — over a shirt on summer evenings, under a jacket in winter. Only the brushed inside makes it a pure winter fabric.
