Viscose is a cellulose fibre: of plant origin, with the drape and sheen otherwise known from silk. Weight per square metre comes to 100 g/m², width to 134 cm. It is woven from 100 % viscose.
In Salmon/Cream a piece gains temperament. The tone shows, but stays friendly rather than loud. Flowers are the motif that stays in fashion longest; this print brings them at a scale that works on small pieces too. The fabric slips while cutting. With clips instead of pins and a rotary cutter the layer stays where it belongs.
What Viskose Akita Blüten Rose/Lachstöne von Swafing is suitable for
- summer dresses
- wide trousers and skirts
- scarves and wraps
Frequently asked questions
Which needle do I take?
A fine universal or microtex needle. The thinner the fabric, the finer the needle: too strong a needle leaves visible holes that never close again.
Scissors or rotary cutter?
On slippery goods the rotary cutter, because it does not lift the fabric. Scissors drag the layer along and the edge is no longer true.
Why does the seam pucker?
Because needle and stitch length do not suit the fabric. A fine needle, a shorter stitch and less presser foot pressure solve most of it. On very thin goods tissue paper under the seam helps, torn away afterwards.
What ironing temperature?
Moderate, and from the reverse. Viscose and polyester do not take the heat used for cotton; too hot and the surface turns shiny or melts.
