Brushed sweatshirt, French terry… What’s that?

We know it's not always easy to visualize materials and their weights to select the ideal fabric for a specific project! That's why we've gathered all the fabrics we've sewn this model in, as well as those we imagine for your creations. A little extra: matching ribbing is also available to make your online choices easier. For haberdashery, it can be difficult to find zippers at the right length: thanks to our video tutorial, learn how to easily shorten all your zippers: a practical tip that you can reuse for many other projects!
If you want to add inserts in different colors, we recommend using fabrics of similar weights for a harmonious look. You'll find tips on calculating the amount of fabric needed per color on the product sheet, under the supplies table: it's easy to do, everything's included!
This model is designed to be sewn in knit, a stretchy and comfortable material. You can make it in French terry, brushed sweatshirt, terry cloth, Milano knit, or even jersey. The choice of fabric will depend on the style you want and the season for which you are sewing it! For winter, opt for a warm and cozy result with a more or less thick brushed sweatshirt, Milano knit, fleece, or even sherpa on a knit base for an ultra-comfortable jacket. For mid-season, the Liverpool model is perfect for French terry, terry cloth, or quilted jersey.
