COTTON FRENCH TERRY FABRIC - AZURE BLUE - 340 GSM

COTTON FRENCH TERRY FABRIC - AZURE BLUE

Azure sweatshirt fabric has a smooth, matte face and a looped reverse. It has a soft, substantial hand. The fabric holds its shape well, and a larger piece drapes gently. The vibrant blue can cover a uniform surface or be paired with a light detail at the edge.

Softness and knit construction

The knit contains 100% cotton. At 340 GSM, the fabric is thick, compact, and substantial. It provides full opacity. The loops on the wrong side are part of the sweatshirt fabric's looped construction and differ in texture from the smooth face. View both surfaces when planning a turnback. A gentle, pleasant feel against the skin also matters on a section exposed from the inside.

Azure and understated accessories

The color can be paired with white, navy, or light gray. Lay out swatches in the intended proportions to see the extent of the contrast. Matte sweatshirt fabric and ribbed trim will have different surface appearances. Choose the thread beside an actual piece of the fabric. The knit is intended for year-round use. It is suitable for sweatpants, children's clothing, and bathrobes, among other uses. In areas that touch the body, maintain a soft feel at the seams as well. A sample join with several layers lets you check the thickness and edge arrangement before sewing larger pieces.

Fabric behavior, cutting, and sewing preparation

The knit is nonstretch, so allow the necessary ease in the pattern and check circumferences and openings before cutting. The fabric drapes softly, while stability helps maintain its position on the table. The thickness of several layers will matter at hems. A test fold at a seam intersection shows the arrangement of the entire edge. It also allows the finishing width to be assessed in relation to the sweatshirt fabric's substantial hand. Also consider how the fabric behaves during wear when cutting and preparing finishes. The sweatshirt fabric's substantial hand will matter at hems. Folding a swatch into several layers helps assess edge thickness, especially at seam intersections. The fabric is 175 cm wide. Arrange pattern pieces on fabric laid out without tension, accounting for allowances and the stretch direction of individual pieces. Supporting the knit beyond the tabletop helps preserve its natural dimensions. Inspect the test stitching on both sides.

Care and durability

The French terry has a silicone finish. It stands up well to frequent washing, retaining its shape and color afterward. A low tendency to wrinkle makes care easier. Low shrinkage supports dimensional retention. The fabric resists pilling, abrasion, stretching out, and distortion. These qualities matter in a knit used regularly.
