Description

This cotton fabric has a soft, clean white hue rather than a glaring optical one, knitted with bands of tiny eyelet diamonds set between fine raised ribs, while the reverse is a smooth, plain jersey with a faint texture. At 190gsm it sits comfortably in the mid-weight range, with a soft, springy handle and a fluid drape that falls into relaxed folds.

The openwork, often called pointelle, is knitted into the cloth rather than cut or embroidered, so it's soft against the skin, with no cut edges like broderie. The 95% cotton, 5% spandex blend gives it some natural give for easy wear and lets the air move through on warm days. Be warned that white and eyelets together are fairly candid about what lies beneath, so a nude underlayer is your friend.

What to make with it

This is a natural for fitted and easy tees, camisoles and sleeveless tops, where the eyelet bands add interest without needing a print. The Named Sisko Interlace Dress and Top suits it well: the knit's give and soft drape work with the interlaced detail, and in white the result looks crisp rather than fussy.

It also makes lovely summer nightwear, lightweight layering pieces to wear over a camisole, and pretty baby and children's clothes where a breathable cotton matters. The bands of diamonds give you a handy line to follow when cutting and matching seams.

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.
