The Stof France PUL Coated Jersey Stretch Knit Fabric is an essential material for parents, crafters, and makers looking to create waterproof yet comfortable textile projects. It is ideal for those sewing cloth nappies, bibs, changing mats, and protective covers, offering a unique blend of a soft, stretchy jersey exterior and a reliable waterproof backing. While its pliability makes it excellent for intricate shapes, users should note that the specialized coating requires specific care during sewing and laundering to maintain its longevity.

Yes, PUL is the industry standard for cloth nappies and baby accessories due to its durability and non-toxic properties.
While it withstands high temperatures, line drying is recommended to extend the life of the waterproof lamination.
No, the jersey knit face provides a fabric-like touch, while the laminate is hidden on the reverse side.
A slight zigzag stitch or a dedicated stretch stitch is recommended to accommodate the knit nature of the fabric.
While it is waterproof, it is primarily designed for indoor and personal hygiene products rather than heavy-duty outdoor weather protection.
Use a finer ballpoint needle and ensure you are using a stitch length that is not too small to prevent perforation.
Use a walking foot or place tissue paper between the fabric and the feed dogs to stabilize the movement.
Check if fabric softener was used, which can coat the fibers; re-wash using only detergent to restore the barrier.
To ensure the best results, use a ballpoint or jersey needle to prevent puncturing the laminate layer excessively during construction. If the fabric drags under the machine, use a walking foot or a Teflon presser foot to maintain even tension.
For maintenance, wash in warm or hot water with mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as these can leave a residue that compromises the waterproof barrier. To maintain its longevity, hang-dry whenever possible, though the fabric is designed to withstand higher temperatures. If ironing is necessary, do so on the jersey side with a low heat setting, ensuring the iron does not come into direct contact with the PUL-coated side.
