Cotton interlock jersey

Composition: 100% Cotton - Weight: 190 gsm - Printable Width: 150cm - Colour: Optic White

New into our 2022 fabric range is a sumptuous Cotton Interlock Jersey.

STRUCTURE

The interlock weave of this fabric makes it strong but super soft. Offering a natural delicate stretch, it is an ideal choice when designing and making casualwear or baby clothes. 

As cotton fibres are naturally hollow, it makes them soft and cool. When woven, it creates a fabric that is renowned for being breathable and absorbent. The sumptuous feel against the skin is both cool and comforting. 

Our Cotton Interlock Jersey is great at holding the colour of your beautiful designs. The bold, vivid colours of this pattern really pop against the optic white base colour. With a generous 150cm printable width, you are getting a great deal!

Printing Scarves

Shrinkage

The processes involved in digital textile printing causes the original fabric to shrink. If you are printing scarves, the size of the finished product will be important to you. For example, if you have square artwork, you will be expecting your finished scarf to be square!

To get the printed fabric closer to the size you need, all fabric intended for scarves must go through an extra step to reshape it. Please allow extra time on your deadlines to allow for this process. 

Let us introduce you to the …

Stenter

The stenter is an enormous piece of machinery that has many uses, including coating our fabrics and reshaping scarf orders.

After travelling through a solution to soften the fabric, it then passes over a flat bed, gripped on the selvedge edges to pull it back into shape. 

It’s a long and precise process that needs to be carefully monitored.

Shrinkage Disclaimer

If you have selected to use our hemming service, we will check the stentered fabric for you before we begin to finish your scarves. If you are not using our service, it’s up to you to check the size BEFORE you cut out the individual scarves from the fabric length. We cannot re-size after your scarves have been cut out.
