95% Cotton - 5% Elastane


The Cocoa Palm Summer Sweat by Katia Fabrics is a lightweight summer sweatshirt fabric with an elegant green palm print on a light background. A cool and soft tropical design that evokes the calmness of exotic landscapes. This thin French terry fabric with cotton content is perfect for sewing light sweatshirts, casual dresses, jogger-style pants, and mid-season children’s clothing. Its elasticity ensures comfort and freedom of movement. Sewing tip: use a ballpoint needle and zigzag stitches to maintain the fabric’s flexibility.

-Jersey needle, SUK ballpoint, thickness: 70/80
-Sew with low tension in the top thread of the sewing machine and a small stitch so that, when you pull the seams, the backstitch does not break. Avoid pulling the fabric when sewing so that the seams do not stretch.
-If you have an overlook machine, ideal for all types of seam, adjust the differential feed until you see that the fabric is not pulling.
-Hem with a twin jersey needle.
-Steam or wash before cutting and sewing.
-Always iron the glitter patterns of Sweat Gold on the back of the fabric.
