This cotton Jersey Tube is a great way of making doll heads. The traditional method of making doll heads can be challenging on the hands this offers a less straining alternative. It is a round-knitted tube of stretchable cotton, which can be made into the base layer of the doll's head by sewing or knotting one end close. After forming a ball out of wool, insert into the tube to start forming the head. For extra sturdy heads a double layer can be used. When the head is in the desired shape tie it shut at the neck.

Available in 1.5cm, 2.5cm, 4cm, 6cm, 8cm, 10cm width.

DOLL JERSEY WITH STRETCH – COLOUR 101 PINK

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.

Materials & safety

• 100% cotton

• OEKO-TEX® certified yarns

• Dyed according to EU EN71 toy safety regulations

• Free from harmful or toxic substances

• Suitable for use in children’s toys

Manufactured in Europe under strict quality and safety standards.

Specifications

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.
