FAQs

What is the composition of the ribbing?

The composition is not specified in the product description. Refer to the product label for specific details.

What stitch should I use to attach the ribbing?

Use a stretch stitch or zigzag stitch for best results.

Can I iron the ribbing?

Yes, but use a low heat setting and avoid direct contact with the iron to prevent damage. Place a cloth between the iron and the ribbing.

How do I calculate the length of ribbing needed?

Measure the circumference of the area where you'll be attaching the ribbing and subtract a small amount (about 10-20%) to account for the ribbing's stretch.

Can this ribbing be used for cuffs on sleeves?

Yes, this ribbing is ideal for cuffs on sleeves.

Is the ribbing pre-shrunk?

The product description does not specify if the ribbing is pre-shrunk. It is advisable to pre-wash the ribbing before use.

What is the width of the ribbing?

Troubleshooting

Ribbing is too loose after sewing.

Ensure the ribbing is slightly stretched when sewn to the garment to provide a snug fit.

Ribbing is puckering or rippling.

Adjust the tension on your sewing machine and use a walking foot or even-feed foot to prevent uneven feeding of the fabric.

Ribbing frays after washing.

Use a serger or zigzag stitch to finish the edges of the ribbing before sewing it to the garment, or consider pre-washing the ribbing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use the Minerva Core Range Knitted Cuff Ribbing, first measure and cut the ribbing to the required length. It can be sewn onto your fabric using a standard sewing machine, ideally with a stretch stitch or zigzag stitch to allow for flexibility. When washing, follow the care instructions for the fabric you are attaching the ribbing to. Generally, washing in cold water and air drying is recommended to maintain the ribbing's elasticity and prevent shrinking. Avoid using bleach or harsh detergents, as they can damage the fibers.
