Description
This French terry stretches but sits considerably firmer than jersey — it holds its shape at hood and pockets. At 150 cm wide its weight per square metre is 255 g/m². It is woven from 92 % cotton and 8 % elastane.
Lilac/White stands between the poles: beside blue it reads warmer, beside red cooler. A striped pattern gives a piece direction — worn lengthwise it lengthens, crosswise it emphasises width. For hoodies, sweat jackets and joggers this is the standard fabric — warm, stretchy and hard-wearing at once. Fabric by the metre is cut in one piece; your ordered length arrives as a single cut.
What French Terry Stripes in Lilac/White is suitable for
- hoodies and hooded jackets
- zip-up sweat jackets
- children's clothes for autumn and winter

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
