Description
Fleece is light, fluffy and warms immediately. It does not fray and needs no edge finishing. 250 g/m² at 150 cm wide: calculate your yardage from the width, not from the pattern alone. Material: 100 % polyester.
A fabric in Light Grey reads calm and lets cut and texture come forward. Ironing is rarely needed; if it is, only on a low setting and from the reverse. Before cutting, a look at the care symbols on the article pays off. Fabric by the metre is cut in one piece; your ordered length arrives as a single cut.
What Fleece in Light Grey is suitable for
- Hats, scarves and headbands, because small pieces need no edge finishing.
- Overalls and sleeping bags for children, as the fabric is warm and washable at 30 degrees.
- Linings for jackets, because fleece adds warmth without adding weight.

Frequently asked questions
How do I wash the fabric?
At 30 degrees on a gentle cycle, ideally turned inside out and without fabric softener so the pile stays fluffy. Do not tumble dry; let it dry hanging or flat in the air. Bleach is off limits according to the care label.
Do I need to finish the edges?
Not necessarily. Fleece does not fray, so raw edges stay clean. For a tidy inside or for garments that see heavy use, an overlock seam or a zigzag stitch on the seam allowance is still worthwhile.
Which needle do I take?
A jersey or stretch needle with a rounded point slips between the loops instead of piercing them. Combine it with a slight zigzag or overlock stitch so the seam does not break when the fabric moves.
Does it suit children's clothes?
Yes, very much. Fleece is light, warm and washable at 30 degrees, good for jumpers, overalls, hats and sleeping bags. Jackets worn in the rain additionally need a waterproof outer fabric.
