Cotton jersey combines two things that rarely meet: tough enough for daily wear and soft enough for a baby's skin. Weight per square metre comes to 210 g/m², width to 145 cm. It is woven from 95 % cotton and 5 % Elastan.
In Mustard the fabric reads summery and awake. Beside grey and denim the tone comes out strongest. 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.

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
