What is jersey suitable for?
Jersey fabrics are especially designed for cuddly cuts with comfort. They are perfect for shirts and dresses, gymwear, underwear, baby clothes and comfortable loungewear. Variants with a higher polyester or elastane content retain their shape better, viscose and bamboo jerseys are particularly soft and silky.
Processing tips for hobby sewers
Before cutting, we recommend test sewing and pre-washing if necessary, as some jerseys can shrink easily. Jersey or stretch needles and a stretch stitch or zigzag stitch are suitable for sewing; differential feed and matching needles on overlock machines ensure clean edges. Do not stretch when sewing, rather guide the fabric lightly; a walking foot or stretch foot helps for better seams. Rib knits or hems can be sewn with a twin or cover stitch, alternatively with a narrow zigzag seam.
