This wonderfully soft 4oz washed denim chambray fabric in dark blue is both malleable and easy to sew. The unique appearance of this fabric comes from its production in large washers with bleach (Please note: This results in shade variations from batch to batch). Although it is not technically denim due to its lack of twill weave, it has a denim-like appearance and a great drape, making it ideal for shirts, blouses, shorts, skirts, and various crafts.
To maintain its colour and quality, avoid storing the fabric under lights or in windows, as it will fade over time. Colour loss can occur from washing, wearing, and exposure to daylight. Denim dye can also transfer to lighter colours, including upholstery. Therefore, it's recommended to wash denim clothes several times in cold water before wearing to remove any loose dye. Turning denim garments inside out and washing with other dark colours can help prevent dye transfer.
This fabric has been pre-washed to minimise shrinkage. For washing, use a 30-degree wash, avoid bleach, and use a cool tumble-dry setting. Washing separately the first couple of times is recommended.
