Description
The rib structure makes this jersey more elastic than a smooth knit — good for close-fitting shirts and dresses. Weight per square metre comes to 220 g/m², width to 150 cm. It is woven from 100 % cotton.
In Purple a piece gains something of its own. The tone is rare enough to notice and calm enough to wear. 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 Rib Jersey Flowers in Purple is suitable for
- children's clothing
- hoodies and sweat jackets
- hats and snoods

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.
