About this range

Heike ist das Feinripp-Bündchen von Swafing: fein geripptes Gestrick, das sich weit dehnen lässt und danach wieder in seine Form zurückgeht. Es schließt Ärmel, Saum, Halsausschnitt und Hosenbund an Shirts, Hoodies, Sweatjacken und Kinderkleidung sauber ab und hält den Abschluss über viele Wäschen in Form. Heike läuft farbgleich zu Vanessa, Maike und Eike, gleicher Farbcode, gleicher Ton, also lassen sich Oberstoff und Bündchen ohne Farbabweichung kombinieren.

Sewing tips

  • gemeinsames Vorwaschen von Bündchen und Oberstoff
  • Fadenlauf — Dehnung läuft quer, Streifen quer zuschneiden
  • im Bruch zuschneiden und längs doppelt legen
  • kürzer zuschneiden und gedehnt annähen mit Faustregel (Halsbündchen zwei Drittel bis drei Viertel der Ausschnittlänge, Ärmel und Saum etwas kürzer als der Umfang)
  • Stretch- oder Jerseynadel 75 bis 80, bei mehreren Lagen 90
  • Overlock oder elastischer Stich, gerader Steppstich reißt
  • links bügeln ohne Ziehen, damit die Rippe nicht flach wird
  • farbgleiche Oberstoffe über den Farbcode

Cuffing has to do two things: stretch far enough for a head to pass through the neckline, and return to shape afterwards. Heike is worked firmly enough for that without feeling hard.

Because the colour numbers apply across the ranges, there is no need to compare shades on screen. Anyone sewing a jumper from Eike takes Heike in the same number and gets the same tone – even though the two fabrics look different, because the surface is different.

Cut it shorter than the opening, usually by a fifth to a quarter. While attaching it the cuffing is stretched and the fabric stays flat. A jersey needle prevents skipped stitches.

Frequently asked questions

Does the cuffing look exactly like the sweat?

The shade is the same, the surface is not. Cuffing is ribbed and reflects light differently from smooth sweat, so the same number can appear minimally different depending on the light.

How much cuffing do I need for a shirt?

For a neckline, two sleeves and the hem, half a metre is usually enough in adult sizes. Children's clothes need considerably less; leftovers can be used for hats.

Can I sew cuffing as a main fabric?

Yes, for hats, snoods or close fitting sleeves for instance. Bear in mind that the fabric pulls in strongly – a pattern meant for jersey turns out noticeably tighter in cuffing.
