The Sewing Bee Effect
The Sewing Bee returns on 14th July 2026. Discover why the show inspires thousands of sewists every year and the fabrics we expect to see more of.
Add some retro charm to your wardrobe with this crochet effect knit featuring fresh cream stripes alongside vibrant orange, olive green and deep navy. The openwork construction creates the appearance of handcrafted crochet, while the warm earthy palette gives it a distinctive seventies-inspired feel that's perfect for transitional dressing. Lightweight, breathable and softly draping, it's an excellent choice for relaxed garments that can be layered throughout the seasons.
Made from an easy-care blend of 50% cotton and 50% polyester, this fabric offers the natural comfort of cotton with the added durability of polyester. Open knit fabrics can be a little more challenging to sew, but the results are well worth the extra care. For the best finish, use a ballpoint or stretch needle, a walking foot if you have one, and stabilise hems and shoulder seams with clear elastic or seam tape. Ideal for cardigans, beach cover ups, lightweight jumpers, relaxed dresses, tops, ponchos and layering pieces worn over a camisole or slip.
