Super soft and smooth! Stretchy for comfort! 90% Cotton and 10% Spandex knit weave. The classic "must have" fabric! Exactly like our CLF but in black! Not too heavy. Great for all sportswear, dancewear & theater! Sew up a garment & then add our fabric metallic paints & our sparkling Hot-Fix crystals for your own custom exciting textile adornments. Also - we had fun discharging results!
SUCCESSFUL DISCHARGING RESULTS!:
Discharges with plain old household bleach to a lovely salmon color.
Discharges with Jacquard Screen Ink Discharge (#JSID) to an ivory color.
Discharges with Discharge Paste Color Remover (#DDP) to an ivory color.
COOL FIBER ETCH RESULTS!:
Removes all the cotton fibers and leaves behind the lightweight flesh toned spandex knit inside!
Be sparing about the amount of Fiber Etch you use so that you don't create small burnt out holes. However, the holes can be a really cool look for those wanting a punk or grunge look to their fabric. Very urban dramatic look with the black fabric!
As with all fabrics, best to test your discharging technique on a sample before embarking on your project because the fabric can vary from dyelot to dyelot.
