Description
Viscose jersey drapes softer and more fluidly than cotton jersey. It follows the body rather than standing away. At 220 g/m² and 145 cm wide the fabric suits the usual paper patterns. It is made from 6 % Elastan and 94 % viscose.
With Dark Blue you get a colour that suits denim and still does not disappear into it. Its floral pattern gives the fabric its theme — depending on the cut it reads playful or calm. Knits stretch — so sewing them calls for a ballpoint needle and a stretch stitch or an overlocker.
What Viscose Jersey Flowers in Dark Blue is suitable for
- leggings and trousers
- hats and snoods
- children's bedding

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
