Description
Mottled dusky pink belongs among shades working equally well across children's and women's fashion: muted enough never to read sugary, warm enough to stay soft. Its fine melange adds further depth to the surface. The fabric measures approximately 100 cm across, so a short piece covers every edge of one jumper. The shade looks loveliest beside mottled sweat fabrics in grey or natural white. Anyone building a whole colour family combines it alongside muddy beige, beige and light grey — tones getting along effortlessly.

Frequently asked questions
How do I cut ribbing correctly?
Cut the strip crosswise to the selvedge, where the stretch runs, then fold it lengthwise along the crease. Rule of thumb: neckbands about two thirds to three quarters of the neckline, sleeve or hem bands slightly shorter than the circumference.
How does the melange look appear?
The melange comes of finely blended fibres, giving ribbing a lively, subtly speckled depth. It suits mottled sweat fabrics particularly well, letting edges appear less flat than plain solid ribbing would.
How wide is this ribbing fabric?
The fabric measures approximately 100 cm across. Several ribbing strips fit side by side, which means even a short length covers sleeves, hem and neckline of one complete jumper without running short.
What does fine rib mean?
Fine rib describes the narrow, regular rib structure of the knit. It makes the fabric especially stretchy crosswise while creating that typical firm ribbing handle. Against coarse rib knits, fine rib looks neater, adding less bulk at necks or sleeves.
