Introduction:
Humbug Stripe - Ponte is a fabulously refreshing, black and white striped knitted (not printed), Ponte jersey fabric. The super horizontal humbug stripes are finely knitted with a 1cm pattern repeat.
Colour:
With all these redeeming features imagine a capsule wardrobe of key pieces which you can mix & match with your other basic staples, black and white stripes always look fresh and sporty and are easily incorporated with most other colours and tones.
Properties:
This excellent Ponte double jersey is made in a superfine gauge knit, from soft polyester and elastane to give a useful two-way stretch (slightly less and firmer stretch on the length) and a cosy medium weight, fabric with a reassuringly comfortable drape quality.
Garment Suggestions:
The 1cm pattern repeat makes it the perfect fabric for your Breton style tops, dresses and so much more; ideal for relaxed casual wear in the colder months.
Use Humbug Stripe - Ponte to make comfortable and stylish clothing that falls away from the body rather than clinging. Create lounge pants and sweatshirts, tunic tops, Breton tops and artists smocks, long-belted cardigans, classic roll-neck tops, simple raglan sleeve tops, stylish shift dresses, simple skirts and so much more.
