Description
Viscose is a cellulose fibre: of plant origin, with the drape and sheen otherwise known from silk. The fabric is 138 cm wide and weighs 140 g/m². It is made from 2 % elastane and 98 % viscose.
Khaki reads natural rather than technical. Beside wood, linen and earth shades the tone looks self-evident. Press at moderate heat — viscose and polyester do not take cotton temperatures. 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 Viscose Woven in Khaki is suitable for
- summer dresses
- linings for jackets
- kimonos

Frequently asked questions
What ironing temperature?
Moderate, and from the reverse. Viscose and polyester do not take the heat used for cotton; too hot and the surface turns shiny or melts.
Which needle do I take?
A fine universal or microtex needle. The thinner the fabric, the finer the needle: too strong a needle leaves visible holes that never close again.
Scissors or rotary cutter?
On slippery goods the rotary cutter, because it does not lift the fabric. Scissors drag the layer along and the edge is no longer true.
Why does the seam pucker?
Because needle and stitch length do not suit the fabric. A fine needle, a shorter stitch and less presser foot pressure solve most of it. On very thin goods tissue paper under the seam helps, torn away afterwards.
