Description
This French terry stretches but sits considerably firmer than jersey — it holds its shape at hood and pockets. 250 g/m² at 145 cm wide: calculate your yardage from the width, not from the pattern alone. Material: 95 % cotton and 5 % Elastan.
A fabric in Grey reads calm and lets cut and texture come forward. The star pattern runs evenly across the surface and needs no special alignment when cutting. Sweat adds more bulk than jersey — on children's clothes cutting a size up pays off.
What French Terry Stars in Grey is suitable for
- hoodies and hooded jackets
- children's clothes for autumn and winter
- jumpers

Frequently asked questions
What do I do with offcuts?
Sweat offcuts become pockets, hood linings, cuffing alternatives or appliqué. The goods do not fray, so even small pieces work without finishing. The edge does not fray, so even narrow strips work without finishing.
Which needle and which stitch?
A jersey needle with a ball point, one size up for several layers. Sew with a stretch stitch or an overlocker — a straight seam will not survive the stretch at cuffs and hood.
Which cuffing suits it?
Fine rib for sleeves and hem, coarse rib for sturdier jackets. Cuffing is cut shorter than the circumference and sewn on stretched, otherwise the finish stands away.
How do I press sweat?
From the reverse and at moderate heat. On the face an iron flattens the loops, and that spot stays visibly flatter than the rest of the surface.
