Description
Mottled dark grey is ribbing meant for anyone preferring dark without black. The melange gives the surface depth, making edges look more premium than plain solid grey — an effect visible constantly across ready-made sportswear. Containing 95 % cotton alongside 5 % elastane, this fine rib stays skin-friendly and elastic, tested regarding harmful substances according to Oeko-Tex. The shade suits mottled sweat fabrics particularly well: ribbing and outer fabric then speak one language, even where the greys are not exactly identical.

- Ribbing on hoodies and sweat jackets

Frequently asked questions
Which needle and stitch work best?
Sew using a stretch or jersey needle in size 75 to 80, moving up to 90 across several layers at a hood or waistband. An overlocker or elastic stitch keeps the seam flexible, while a straight stitch snaps as the garment is pulled on.
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 much ribbing do I need?
Sleeve and hem ribbing on a jumper usually takes only a short piece, while hoodies including hood facings or pockets need more. We cut from 0.2 metres upwards, so you can order exactly what your pattern calls for.
Which fabrics match this colour exactly?
Heike is colour-matched to Vanessa, Maike and Eike by Swafing: identical colour code, identical shade. You can combine jersey, French terry or brushed sweat alongside matching ribbing, avoiding any colour deviation at the edges.
