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 140 cm wide and brings 300 g/m² to the scale. Its composition reads 95 % cotton and 5 % elastane.
Multicolour works best when the rest of the piece steps back — a plain cuff, a quiet lining. The floral print runs across the whole surface, so no pattern piece comes out empty. If you sew jersey for the first time, a simple shirt is the best start — the fabric forgives more than its reputation suggests.
What Cotton Jersey Flowers in Multicolour is suitable for
- shirts and long sleeves
- children's clothing
- leggings and trousers

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
