Description
Cotton jersey is the knit most everyday clothing is made from: stretchy, soft and pleasant against skin. At 210 g/m² and 145 cm wide the fabric suits the usual paper patterns. It is made from 95 % cotton and 5 % elastane.
With Petrol you get a colour that suits denim and still does not disappear into it. Dots read playful without turning intrusive — a pattern that works on children's clothes as on blouses. Knits stretch — so sewing them calls for a ballpoint needle and a stretch stitch or an overlocker.

Frequently asked questions
Which needle do I need?
A jersey or stretch needle with a ball point. It pushes the loops aside instead of piercing them. A universal needle leaves small holes that later run into ladders.
Why does the cut edge curl?
Because knits are made of loops that relax when cut. That is normal and no fault. While cutting it helps to keep the fabric flat and to use a rotary cutter.
How much fabric do I need?
That depends on the pattern and the fabric width. As a rule of thumb an adult shirt takes about twice the body length, less on wide goods. Add seam allowances and cuffing.
Do I need an overlocker?
Not necessary, but convenient. Everything works with a stretch stitch on a domestic machine — it only takes longer, since sewing and finishing stay two steps.
