Description
Dusky pink carries a light grey cast, which makes it read grown-up. It is the shade you pick when pink should not look like a nursery.
Satin ribbon at 6 mm wide in 100 % polyester, by the metre from 0.2 metres. For fine work this width is right: neck bows on children's clothes, tags on gifts, edges on cards. For large bows meant to hold their shape, reach for something wider. No washing, no ironing, no bleach, no drying. Roll leftovers so no creases remain. Because polyester gives hardly at all, the length you measured survives tying, and your loop will not sag.
What Satin Ribbon 6 mm Dusky Pink is suitable for
- A striped effect from several lengths, because narrow ribbon lines up.
- Appliqué, because short pieces already suffice.
- Baby headbands, because this ribbon lies softly.

Frequently asked questions
What is a 6 mm width good for?
Anything meant to stay fine: neck bows on children's clothes, edges on cards, gift tags, hair pieces for little ones. Wider ribbons add bulk; this one lies flat, nearly vanishing into a seam.
Why does only one side shine?
That is the satin weave: on the show side, yarn floats long across the surface and reflects light; on the back it binds short and stays matt. You can use either side deliberately.
Does it shift while sewing?
On smooth satin a presser foot slips easily. Sew slowly, keep slight tension on the ribbon and stitch both edges in the same direction — otherwise your second seam travels against the first.
Does a knot hold in such narrow ribbon?
Satin slips, so a simple knot tends to loosen. Pull it tight, leave the ends long enough, and add a drop of fabric glue inside if needed — then it stays where you put it.
