Cotton jersey is the knit most everyday clothing is made from: stretchy, soft and pleasant against skin. At 200 g/m² and 145 cm wide the fabric suits the usual paper patterns. It is made from 95 % cotton and 5 % elastane.
With Dusty Pink you get a warm tone that stays fresh through many washes. The floral print runs across the whole surface, so no pattern piece comes out empty. 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.

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
