Description
Cotton jersey stretches across the grain and returns to shape. Exactly that makes it so usable for shirts and children's clothes. The fabric comes 145 cm wide and brings 200 g/m² to the scale. Its composition reads 95 % cotton and 5 % Elastan.
Ecru is the colour for anything meant to look airy. In summer a pale fabric reads noticeably lighter than a dark one. Its animal motifs turn the fabric into an eye-catcher for children's clothes — from shirt to cushion. Stretch runs across the web; align your pattern pieces accordingly, otherwise the piece sits wrong later.
What Cotton Jersey Animal Motifs in Ecru is suitable for
- shirts and long sleeves
- children's clothing
- leggings and trousers

Frequently asked questions
Do I need an overlocker?
Not necessary, but convenient. Everything works with a stretch stitch on a domestic machine — it only takes longer, since sewing and finishing stay two steps.
Which needle do I need?
A jersey or stretch needle with a ball point. It pushes the loops aside instead of piercing them. A universal needle leaves small holes that later run into ladders.
Why does the cut edge curl?
Because knits are made of loops that relax when cut. That is normal and no fault. While cutting it helps to keep the fabric flat and to use a rotary cutter.
How much fabric do I need?
That depends on the pattern and the fabric width. As a rule of thumb an adult shirt takes about twice the body length, less on wide goods. Add seam allowances and cuffing.
