Description
Black is the darkest shade in the range and looks less harsh in boucle than on smooth fabrics, because the curls break up the light. A black teddy jacket is elegant and can be worn with anything. As a collar or pocket trim on light colours black also sets clear accents.
The reverse matters when planning: Kodiak has a woven backing that feels slightly rough. For cushions and upholstery that makes no difference, on garments a lining makes them comfortable to wear. A smooth cotton sateen lining also helps jackets slide over a jumper more easily.
Kodiak is just as good for home projects: armchair covers, stools, cushions and throws get a soft, tactile surface that feels warm.
What Plush in Black is suitable for
- Teddy jackets, vests and coats with a lining, because the firm woven backing gives the fabric body.
- Collars, pocket trims and hoods as a boucle accent on smooth fabrics.
- Bags and accessories where the texture works even without decoration.
- Armchair covers, stools and seat cushions, as the compact curls stand up well to frequent use.
Sewing tips
- Die Rückseite ist ein Gewebe, kein Fleece. Jacken, Westen und Mäntel deshalb mit Futter nähen, bei dehnbaren Schnitten mit Jersey, sonst mit Baumwolle uni, Popeline oder Baumwollsatin.
- Alle Teile in dieselbe Strichrichtung legen, sonst wirkt der Flor an Vorder- und Rückenteil unterschiedlich.
- Von links zuschneiden und mit der Scherenspitze nur den Grund schneiden, damit der Flor nicht gekappt wird. Lose Flusen danach absaugen.
- Universalnadel in Stärke 90 bis 100, Stichlänge 3 bis 3,5. Ein Obertransportfuß verhindert, dass die Lagen verrutschen.
- Nahtzugaben schmal zurückschneiden und den Flor aus der Naht herausbürsten, das trägt weniger auf.
- Nicht direkt bügeln. Wenn nötig von links, mit wenig Hitze und einem Tuch dazwischen.
- Bei 30 Grad im Schonwaschgang waschen, nicht in den Trockner.

Frequently asked questions
Which lining colour suits Kodiak?
Tone on tone looks calm and refined, a contrast adds an accent when the jacket is opened. The type matters more: jersey for stretch patterns, cotton or cotton sateen for all others.
Does Kodiak need a lining?
For garments, yes. The reverse is a woven base rather than fleece, so a lined jacket or vest is more comfortable and lasts longer. Jersey suits stretch patterns, otherwise use plain cotton, poplin or cotton sateen.
How do I wash Kodiak?
At 30 degrees on a gentle cycle, ideally turned inside out. Do not put it in the dryer, let it dry flat instead. That keeps the curls loose and the fabric holds its shape.
Can I iron Kodiak?
Preferably not directly. If you must, iron only from the wrong side, with little heat and a pressing cloth in between. On the right side the iron flattens the curls and the mark stays visible.
