Frequently asked questions
Which needle plus stitch?
A jersey needle alongside a narrow zigzag, or your stretch stitch. Sweat stretches across its width, which a straight seam never survives long — especially along cuffs plus sleeve hems.
Should I pre-wash?
Yes, once before cutting. Sweat fabrics containing cotton draw up during their first wash; afterwards length stays stable, so a finished garment keeps fitting through every wash that follows.
Which cuffing suits it?
Cuffing in a matching shade or a contrast, cut to roughly eighty percent of your edge. If unsure, wrap it around an arm or neck, drawing it up until it feels comfortable.
How should I press sweat fabric?
From its reverse, without pressure. Its inner face carries loops or brushing; heat plus pressure flatten those, costing this fabric exactly what you bought it for.
