LIGHTWEIGHT COTTON BRUSHED SWEATSHIRT FLEECE FABRIC - SNOW WHITE - 280 GSM

COTTON-POLYESTER BRUSHED SWEATSHIRT FLEECE FABRIC - SNOW WHITE

This snow-white sweatshirt fleece is smooth and matte on the right side and fluffy on the reverse. Its soft hand is noticeable in direct contact. The fabric stays stable, drapes softly, and is fully opaque. Snow white clearly reveals the uniform surface and the way the edges are finished.

A soft reverse and knit construction

The knit contains 90% cotton and 10% polyester and weighs 280 GSM. The fabric is compact and substantial, while the brushed side has a fine nap that is very soft and pleasant against the skin. The sweatshirt fleece is warm. Consider this quality when selecting a style and additional layers, maintaining a soft feel where pieces are joined as well.

White on a smooth surface

The color can be paired with pastels, gray, or dark navy. When choosing white ribbing, compare samples in daylight because differences in shade can be obvious side by side. The matte appearance of the sweatshirt fabric supports calm combinations. Full opacity is a separate fabric property that matters when planning the number of layers. Narrow and wide finishes are best assessed in their intended proportions.

Fabric stretch, cutting, and preparation for sewing

The knit holds its shape well and is stable, while its stretch remains limited. Before choosing a pattern, test a sample's stretch, especially in areas requiring a close fit. The fabric drapes softly across larger sections. It is suitable for sweatshirts, sweatpants, and children's clothing, among other applications. Its year-round purpose allows it to be used in different projects, depending on the style and how it is worn. The way the fabric stretches should also be considered during cutting and preparation of finishes. The 175 cm width provides room to lay out large pieces and small finishing details. When measuring, the sweatshirt fleece should rest freely on the table, with the remaining length supported. Prepare a sewing sample where several layers overlap. This will let you assess edge thickness, seam stretch, and the feel on the brushed reverse. Select the hem width after examining this folded sample. The softness of the reverse can also be used in bathrobes and other projects where the inner surface directly touches the skin.

Care and durability

The sweatshirt fleece has a silicone finish. It withstands frequent washing and retains its shape and color afterward. Its shrinkage is low, and its tendency to wrinkle is slight. The knit resists abrasion and pilling, as well as stretching out and distortion. These qualities help maintain the smooth outer face and the knit's shape during regular use.
