Description
French terry is smooth outside and finely looped inside. It warms noticeably more than jersey without adding bulk. At 260 g/m² and 145 cm wide the fabric suits the usual paper patterns. It is made from 95 % cotton and 5 % Lurex.
With Sand you get a base tone that suits earth shades as readily as strong red or green. Its floral pattern gives the fabric its theme — depending on the cut it reads playful or calm. Sweat is thicker than jersey — at hood, pockets and cuffs several layers meet quickly; sew slowly there.
What French Terry Flowers in Sand is suitable for
- hoodies and hooded jackets
- zip-up sweat jackets
- blankets and cushions
Frequently asked questions
How does sweat differ from jersey?
In its inside. Sweat carries loops or a brushed surface there that holds warmth; jersey is smooth on both faces. So sweat is thicker, warmer and more stable, while stretching a little less.
How do I sew over thick spots?
Slowly and with reduced presser foot pressure. Where hood, facing and cuffing meet, turning the handwheel by hand beats pressing the pedal. A tailor's clapper or pliers flattens the spot first, and the needle then passes more easily.
How much fabric does a hoodie take?
For an adult model a little over twice the body length plus sleeves, more on narrow goods. Hood and pockets come on top — allow generously.
Does it suit children's clothes?
Very well. Sweat takes movement, warms and forgives imprecise seams. Because it adds bulk, cutting a size up pays off in children's sizes. The goods also stand up to knees and elbows, the first places children wear through.
