Tips when working with this fabric:
- Avoid ironing,
- Cut pattern pieces with the nap in the same direction. If you aren’t familiar, the nap refers to how the fibres stand up on the fabric's surface.
- Use sharp scissors when cutting out.
- Using a walking foot when sewing, this will ensure that the fabric is pulled through the dog feeds evenly.
- As sherpa is a knit fabric, use a jersey or ballpoint needle and stretch stitches when sewing your garment.
- Use sewing clips instead of pins as the pins may get hidden in the fabric.
- Sherpa fleece is known to shed a lot during the sewing process, so any unfinished seams will continue to shed once your garment is finished. Be sure to finish all raw edges!
