Mid-heavy weight cotton stretch denim.

Although our patterns don’t call for stretch denim you could certainly use this denim for the Harlene dungarees and Heroine jeans.

We recommend pre washing your denim before sewing. Putting a large piece of medium-heavy weight denim into the washing machine can sometimes lead to white creases in the denim, this is because it is a stiff fabric so it doesn’t have room to move around. We recommend doing the following to help this not to happen:

• Wash your denim on its own for the first wash.
• Sink your denim in water before hand, letting it fully absorb, so you are putting in the denim already wet.
• If you can break up your denim fabric into half this will help.
• For the first wash use a delicate 30 degree cycle with a low spin.
• If any white creases develop ironing whilst still damp will help.
• Do not tumble dry.

The fabric has a sheen which will be lost once washed and it will soften. 12oz denim is suitable for the following patterns in our Workbook: Bantam, Curlew, Heron, Strides and Saltmarsh.
