Description
Soft, practical and endlessly wearable, this navy bamboo spandex jersey is the kind of fabric that quietly becomes one of the most useful pieces in your wardrobe sewing pile. The darker tone gives it a slightly smarter feel whilst the bamboo blend keeps it fluid, breathable and soft without becoming flimsy.
Thanks to the added spandex, it stretches comfortably in both directions whilst still recovering well after wear. A brilliant option for everyday dresses, fitted t-shirts, leggings and travel-friendly clothing that needs comfort without looking too casual.

Care & washing
Allow 2-10% shrinkage to be on the safe side. Wash the fabric before making up, in the same way you'll wash the finished make, drying methods included, so it settles once rather than after it's sewn.
Test a sample area first to find the most suitable way to wash it. We can't accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.

Colour was as expected, it did not disappoint, it is a lovely lightweight, soft fabric with lots of stretch, very bouncy in the length, so my advice to anyone who is unsure would be do as I did:
Washed fabric and left to dry on as flat a surface as possible to avoid any peg marks / lumps / bumps etc, or you might want to re wash and try again so the fabric lays smooth.
Before cutting I laid the fabric out on my cutting table and left to relax for 24 / 48 hours in case I had stretched it out a little when laying it out.
I altered my pattern pieces slightly (maybe 1 cm or so) at the shorten lengths
marks with this being quite bouncy, as it drops in length a little when being worn -
I made test seams on my machines to make sure they were set up right - before hemming i left the pieces to hang on my dress dummy, a little bit like bias cutting, to see if the lengths had dropped.
all turned out well.

Too thin for t-shirts. Disappointing
We’re sorry to hear you found the bamboo jersey too lightweight for the T-shirt you had planned, Sue. We do include the fabric weight and details on our listings to help with choosing, but appreciate it can be difficult to judge without handling the fabric. Thank you for your feedback.
