Woven Viscose - Hilco Dixie black

Contrary to many rumours, viscose is not a pure synthetic fibre, but an industrially manufactured product made from natural cellulose. It is very similar to cotton but is a little heavier.

Woven goods made of viscose are particularly pleasant on the skin and flow wonderfully softly. Perfect for blouses, skirts, light trousers and much more.

​Good to know

• You still need a suitable thread? We are happy to choose the right one for you!
• Prewash your fabric because viscose can shrink quite a bit. It is best to clean up the cut edges beforehand so that nothing frays when washing.
• Woven viscose fabric is sewn with a short straight stitch and loosened thread tension.
• We recommend a fine Microtex needle.
• for sewing
• Viscose woven fabric is quite "slippery", use spray starch before ironing to give it a little more grip. After sewing you will probably have to wash your finished piece again. Incidentally, ironing starch can also be made yourself from water and cornstarch if you don't have any to hand.
• Instead of pins, we recommend using Wonder Clips as they don't have holes in the fabric leave.
• A short-pile carpet is suitable as a base for slippery fabrics. Only make small cutting movements with the scissors and fix the fabric with your left hand just next to the fabric edge to be cut so that it slips less.
• We deliver the fabric folded, it is cut in one piece.
• The colors may vary depending on the screen, we are happy to help with possible combinations.
