Cotton jersey combines two things that rarely meet: tough enough for daily wear and soft enough for a baby's skin. At 140 cm wide its weight per square metre is 220 g/m². It is woven from 100 % cotton.
Black/Emerald makes pale patterns stand out particularly clearly — the greatest contrast there is. Checks are a classic pattern that can read sporty or elegant — the cut decides. The cut edge of jersey curls. That is no fault but the nature of the goods; you still finish the edge.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need matching cuffing?
For clean finishes at sleeve, hem and neck, yes. Cuffing is cut shorter than the circumference and sewn on stretched — which makes the finish hug rather than stand away.
May the fabric go in the dryer?
The care label decides. In principle knits shrink more in a dryer than on a line. If you plan to tumble dry, do it once before cutting.
Which stitch do I set?
A stretch stitch or a narrow zigzag, otherwise the seam bursts when stretched. If you have an overlocker, use it — it sews and finishes in one pass and is built for knits.
Which way does the fabric stretch?
Clearly across the web, barely along it. Align your pieces accordingly: whatever wraps the body runs crosswise. Confuse the two and you get a piece that will not move.
