Light berry sits between pink plus raspberry: warm, friendly, carrying enough colour to be seen without turning loud. Beside natural white or light grey it looks delicate, distinctly stronger against navy. This French terry sits in the middle weight, draping softly, suiting sweat dresses plus jumpers. Around girls' clothing it is a classic, around women's jumpers a friendly alternative replacing dusky pink. Combining both builds a soft colour family continuing across several garments. Pre-wash before cutting, so the finished garment still fits correctly after its first wash.

Frequently asked questions
Can I apply vinyl prints or iron-on motifs?
Yes, prints belong on the smooth outside. Test on a scrap first, because the temperature must stay low. Across several layers at hoods or pockets, lower presser foot pressure or a walking foot keeps everything from shifting.
Is this fabric tested regarding harmful substances?
Yes, this French terry is certified according to Oeko-Tex, meaning it has been tested regarding harmful substances. Especially in children's clothing, or anything worn against skin, that certification feels reassuring while sewing as well as gifting.
How economical is the 150 cm fabric width?
At 150 cm this fabric runs wider than many cottons. Larger pattern pieces such as backs, fronts or hoods fit side by side, lowering consumption per garment, so even adult sizes can be cut economically.
How heavy is this fabric at 245 gsm?
At 245 gsm this French terry sits in the middle: opaque enough for dresses or trousers, yet distinctly lighter than a winter sweat. It drapes softly while holding shape, suiting almost every sweat pattern.
