Description
<p>Wanja is highly abrasion-resistant and therefore made for furniture in daily use.

This colour comes from the Swafing seasonal collection AW25/26 and is available in limited quantities.</p><p>For armchairs, chairs and stools, stretch it taut and fix it with upholstery staples. Cushions, bags and jackets work just as well.</p><p>For upholstery projects a test piece is worthwhile: tension, rib alignment and corners can be tried out calmly.</p>

Sewing tips
- Die Rippen haben eine Strichrichtung. Alle Teile gleich herum zuschneiden, sonst glänzen sie unterschiedlich.
- Rippen längs zum Fadenlauf legen und an den Nähten auf gleicher Höhe ausrichten, bei Kissen auch diagonal möglich.
- Jeans- oder Universalnadel 90 bis 100, Stichlänge 3, am besten mit Obertransportfuß.
- Nahtzugaben schmal zurückschneiden und auseinanderlegen, dann trägt die Naht weniger auf.
- Für Polsterarbeiten den Stoff straff spannen und mit Polsterklammern befestigen.
- Bei 30 Grad waschen, nicht bleichen, nicht in den Trockner und nicht bügeln.

Frequently asked questions
What should I watch when cutting?
The velvet pile has a direction. Lay every piece the same way round, otherwise they will shimmer differently later. The ribs run along the grain and should meet at the same height across seams.
How do I care for Wanja?
Wash at 30 degrees, do not bleach, do not tumble dry and do not iron. After washing, pull it straight and dry flat. A gentle stroke with a soft brush lifts the pile again when needed.
Does this fabric shrink in the wash?
Polyester hardly shrinks, so prewashing matters less than with cotton. For cushion covers and garments that will go in the machine later, a test wash is still worthwhile so nothing comes as a surprise.
How much fabric do I need for an armchair cover?
That depends on seat, back and armrests. Because of the pile direction all pieces must lie the same way, which costs some waste. It is best to measure the old cover pieces and allow a little extra.
