Description
This cotton jersey is a circular knit: it does not fray at the cut edge and suits beginners as well. 145 cm wide, 200 g/m² — figures that tell you how heavily the fabric falls. Material: 95 % cotton and 5 % elastane.
The tone Camel belongs to the earth colours and suits green, beige and rust without a second thought. For shirts, dresses and children's clothes a knit is the obvious choice — it follows every movement. If unsure, order a little more — a later order may come from a different batch.
What Baumwolljersey Capybara Friends Camel by Mrs. Mint Design von Swafing is suitable for
- shirts and long sleeves
- dresses and skirts
- leggings and trousers

Frequently asked questions
Do I have to pre-wash?
Yes. Whatever shrinks later shrinks better before cutting than on the finished piece. Wash the way you will wash the garment, and dry it the same way.
How do I press a knit?
From the reverse, at moderate heat and without pulling. Direct heat on the face flattens the loops and robs the fabric of its handle. A pressing cloth between never hurts.
Can I combine different knits?
Yes, as long as the stretch is similar. A firm sweat beside a very soft jersey pulls the seam crooked. With larger differences a stay tape in the shoulder seam helps.
What do I do with offcuts?
Keep them. Jersey offcuts become cuffing, pocket bags, hair ties or appliqué. Since the goods do not fray, even small pieces work without finishing. Even strips of a few centimetres still make a loop or a label.
