Jersey de bambú

Bamboo jersey is the softest thing on our shelves — a silky-smooth knit with beautiful drape and a coolness against the skin that makes it the connoisseur's choice for T-shirts, loungewear, nightwear and baby garments. People who try bamboo once tend to come back asking for it by name.

Beyond the feel: bamboo fibre breathes exceptionally, wicks moisture, and stays naturally kind to sensitive skin — which is why it's the go-to for anyone who finds ordinary fabrics itchy or sweaty, and a favourite for children's sleepwear.

It's a fluid, lightweight knit, so handle it gently when cutting (don't let it hang off the table) and sew with a ballpoint needle and giving stitch. The reward is the most luxurious-feeling basics you'll ever make.
