Terry's loops enlarge the surface; that is exactly where its absorbency comes from. The fabric comes 152 cm wide and brings 350 g/m² to the scale. Its composition reads 90 % cotton and 10 % polyester.
Ocean Blue carries pattern well without covering it — which makes the tone the favourite ground for prints. The edge usually does not fray in these qualities; that saves finishing and makes small pieces possible. Fabric by the metre is cut in one piece; your ordered length arrives as a single cut. If unsure, order a little more — a later order may come from a different batch.

- appliqué and patches

- cushions and blankets

Frequently asked questions
Does the fabric fray?
Most qualities in this group do not — felt, fleece, boiled wool and tulle keep their edge. With woven specials such as lace or sequin fabric it is different.
Can I wash it?
The care label on the article says. This group ranges from washable to dry-clean only — there is no blanket answer. When in doubt, test on a scrap before the finished piece gets wet.
How much fabric do I need?
With pile, more than the pattern states: since all pieces must lie the same way, waste arises. Allow extra when the web is narrow. On a narrow web it pays to plan the cutting layout on paper first.
What do I do with offcuts?
Keep them — especially in this group. Small pieces become appliqué, ears for soft toys, coasters or inserts, and the edge need not even be finished.
