Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best results with your Meet MILK fabric, follow these guidelines:
- Pre-washing: Always pre-wash your fabric using the method you intend to use for the finished garment to account for any initial shrinkage.
- Needle Selection: Use a ballpoint or stretch needle (size 80/12 or 90/14) to avoid snagging or skipped stitches during construction.
- Thread: Use a high-quality polyester thread to ensure the seams can flex with the stretch of the fabric.
- Storage: Store the fabric rolled rather than folded whenever possible to avoid deep crease lines that may become set in the dense fiber blend.
- Ironing: Use a medium-heat setting with steam. Test on a scrap piece first to ensure the elastane is not affected by high temperatures.
