Description

Grey is the base colour everyone wants in the cupboard: matching strong colours, pastels and prints equally while never looking dull. A grey sweat jumper tends to be the garment worn most often. This French terry is certified according to Oeko-Tex, tested regarding harmful substances. Beginners gain a practical advantage here: small stitching irregularities show far less against neutral grey than against black or white, which makes starting out easier.

Sewing tips

Vorwaschen (French Terry läuft stärker ein als Jersey)
Stretch-/Jerseynadel 80, bei mehreren Lagen 90
Overlock oder elastischer Stich, Kanten versäubern weil die Schlingen fransen
Abschlüsse mit Heike-Bündchen im gleichen Farbcode statt Umschlag
bei mehreren Lagen Nähfußdruck runter oder Obertransportfuß
Plots auf die glatte Außenseite, vorher am Reststück testen
links bügeln bei niedriger Temperatur, nicht auf die Schlingenseite

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.

What should I keep in mind when washing?

Wash at 30 degrees inside out on a gentle cycle, without bleach, skipping the tumble dryer, then iron inside out at low temperature. Pre-wash before cutting, because French terry shrinks more than jersey does.

Which fabrics match this colour exactly?

Maike is colour-matched to Vanessa, Eike and Heike by Swafing: identical colour code, identical shade. Shirt, jacket and ribbing combine without any colour deviation — practical whenever an outfit uses several fabric types.

How should I finish hems and sleeves?

The neatest finish uses Heike ribbing in the same colour code rather than a folded hem, since that adds less bulk at sleeves or hips. The shade matches exactly, because both ranges share one colour code.
