Designed for garment makers seeking comfort and sustainability, the Meet MILK Tencel Lyocell Jersey Stretch Knit is perfect for crafting high-quality everyday essentials like T-shirts, dresses, and loungewear. Its primary benefit is a signature soft, fluid drape paired with excellent stretch and recovery, providing both style and ease of movement. Prospective users should note that as a medium-weight jersey, it requires careful handling during machine sewing to prevent stretching out of shape during construction.

Yes, but it is recommended that beginners practice on scrap pieces to get comfortable with the fabric's stretch and fluid nature.
It is recommended to air dry the fabric to preserve the integrity of the Lyocell fibers and prevent premature wear.
Yes, the fabric is sold by the metre and is cut as one continuous piece.
The fabric is dyed with high-quality standards, though minor color variations can occur between different production batches.
Tencel Lyocell is highly breathable, moisture-wicking, and significantly softer than standard cotton, making it ideal for sensitive skin.
Switch to a specific ballpoint or stretch needle sized 70/10 or 80/12.
Use a walking foot or reduce the presser foot pressure on your machine to minimize tension.
Use a narrow zigzag stitch or a dedicated stretch stitch setting to allow the seam to flex with the fabric.
To ensure your garments last, always pre-wash the fabric as you intend to wash the finished garment to account for any initial shrinkage. Use a 30-degree gentle cycle and avoid harsh detergents. When pressing, use a low-heat setting and a pressing cloth, as high heat can potentially damage the elastane fibers over time. Store the fabric folded rather than on a hanger to prevent the weight of the jersey from stretching the fabric out of shape during storage.
