Description
Cotton jersey stretches across the grain and returns to shape. Exactly that makes it so usable for shirts and children's clothes. The fabric comes 145 cm wide and brings 220 g/m² to the scale. Its composition reads 97 % cotton and 3 % Elastan.
Green/Turquoise/Orange comes out strongest beside red; that is the complementary contrast, and it always works. Leaves as a motif give the fabric something botanical without turning playful. The cut edge of jersey curls. That is no fault but the nature of the goods; you still finish the edge.
What Piquejersey Malta Blätter Grün/Türkis/Orange by Swafing is suitable for
- shirts and long sleeves
- leggings and trousers
- hats and snoods
Care instructions:
Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
