Description
Its soft handle makes it a favourite for anything you want to snuggle into. At 150 cm wide its weight per square metre is 250 g/m². It is made from 100 % polyester.
Lobster stands warm and clear without demanding the attention a pure red does. A walking foot helps when layers slip against each other — with soft pile that happens often. Fabric by the metre is cut in one piece; your ordered length arrives as a single cut. If unsure, order a little more — a later order may come from a different batch.
What Fleece in Lobster is suitable for
- Snuggle blankets, as the soft pile feels pleasant and does not fray.
- 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.

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.
Is fleece waterproof?
No. Fleece keeps you warm even when slightly damp, but it lets rain through. For rainy weather it belongs as a warm inner layer beneath a softshell or rain jacket fabric.
How do I stop the layers from shifting?
Use fabric clips instead of pins and a walking foot that feeds both layers evenly. Slightly less presser foot pressure and a longer stitch also help, so the soft pile does not bunch up.
What do I do with leftovers?
Cuddly toys, headbands, mittens, hot water bottle covers or doll's clothes. Because fleece does not fray, small pieces are sewn quickly and need no edge finishing. Small scraps also make good appliqués.
