Description
Viscose is a cellulose fibre: of plant origin, with the drape and sheen otherwise known from silk. The fabric comes 145 cm wide and brings 140 g/m² to the scale. Its composition reads 100 % viscose.
Light Pink suits grey and beige particularly well; the pairing reads calmer than with pure white. Leopard patterns work best on quiet cuts — the plainer the piece, the stronger the print. The fabric slips while cutting. With clips instead of pins and a rotary cutter the layer stays where it belongs.
What Viscose Woven Leopard in Light Pink is suitable for
- wide trousers and skirts
- scarves and wraps
- kimonos

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
