HEAVY COTTON DIAGONAL FRENCH TERRY FABRIC - BLACK - 450 GSM, WIDTH: 190 CM

HEAVY COTTON DIAGONAL FRENCH TERRY FABRIC - BLACK - 450 GSM, WIDTH: 190 CM

This diagonal French terry has a thick, dense, and compact structure. It is substantial, pleasant to the touch, and gentle on the skin. The smooth, matte surface is black in this version. The fabric provides full opacity, drapes softly, and maintains a stable shape.

Dense cotton with a looped reverse

This knit is made from 100% cotton and weighs 450 GSM. The sweatshirt knit's looped construction allows you to compare the different textures on each side. When turned back, the reverse will be visible beside the smooth outer surface. Assess the fabric's substance in a folded edge, including seam allowances. A sample of their intersection will show the actual thickness of the join and the way the hem lies.

The soft fall of a compact knit

The fabric holds its shape well, while a larger section drapes softly. The knit is slightly stretchy. Before deciding on the style and required ease, check the actual range of stretch on a sample. On a test seam, compare the behavior of a single layer with that of the complete join. The trim and stitch should provide the movement needed in the finished garment, while edge thickness should suit its specific location.

Matte black in an everyday design

Black can be paired with a white, charcoal, or colorful accent. For a trim in the same color, compare shades and textures directly, preferably in natural light. The fabric is intended for year-round sweatshirts, sweatpants, and bathrobes. For loungewear designs, also assess how the seams feel on the inside. An edge sample with the intended number of layers lets you check whether the hem width and seam allowance arrangement suit this sweatshirt knit's substantial hand.

Cutting while supporting the knit's weight

The fabric is 190 cm wide. Lay it on the work surface so that it retains its natural dimensions, and support the remaining length. Arrange the pattern pieces together with allowances and small details. Before the actual sewing, reproduce the area with the most layers on a sample. This will make it easier to choose the stitch and assess the edge's appearance after joining. If using ribbing, also check the opening's dimensions after it is sewn in and the ease needed to put the garment on.

A surface that stands up to wear

The sweatshirt knit has enzyme and silicone finishes. The French terry resists abrasion, pilling, stretching out, and distortion. It stands up well to frequent washing, retaining its color and shape. Low shrinkage helps maintain the dimensions of the pieces. A low tendency to wrinkle helps preserve the smooth outer side during everyday use.
