DOLL JERSEY WITH STRETCH – COLOUR 115 SALMON LIGHT
Double Knit · 100% Cotton · European Made
When choosing a skin tone, it often works best to select a slightly darker colour. As the fabric is stretched during making and stuffing, the shade will naturally appear a little lighter.
High-quality double-knit cotton doll jersey with excellent stretch and recovery, ideal for Steiner / Waldorf doll making and other soft sculptural textile work. Knitted in the round for a smooth, seam-free structure that remains opaque when stretched.
Produced by De Witte Engel, a specialist manufacturer recognised worldwide for exceptional doll-making jersey.
Why this doll jersey works so well
Double-knit construction
Two layers knitted together create a thicker, more durable fabric that does not become see-through when stretched.
Balanced stretch & recovery
Carefully calibrated elasticity supports lifelike proportions and long-term durability in finished dolls.
Tube knit (no side seams)
Knitted in the round for a continuous, smooth surface — ideal for doll bodies and limbs.
Soft, stable handle
Smooth and pleasant to work with, yet strong enough for shaping, stuffing and repeated handling.

Why we chose this quality
At AppleOak FibreWorks, we prioritise materials that are consistent, durable and responsibly produced. Doll jersey places very specific demands on fibre quality, knitting structure and dye stability — even small variations can affect the proportions, feel and longevity of a finished doll. We chose this double-knit cotton jersey because it offers reliable stretch, opacity and softness while meeting strict European safety standards. It is a fabric we trust for careful, long-lasting work.
