What makes cotton jersey different from regular cotton fabric?

Cotton jersey is knitted rather than woven, creating natural stretch and flexibility. The addition of spandex enhances these properties while maintaining cotton’s breathability.

What can I make with this fabric?

This fabric is ideal for t-shirts, dresses, loungewear, baby clothes, bedding, and home decor items. Its stretch and durability make it suitable for both fitted and loose-fitting garments.

What needle should I use when sewing this fabric?

Use a ballpoint needle (size 70/10 or 80/12) to prevent damage to the knit structure. A zigzag stitch allows the fabric to maintain its stretch properties.

How does the fabric perform in different seasons?

The medium weight and breathable nature make it suitable for year-round use, offering warmth in cooler weather while remaining comfortable in warmer conditions.
