Little flashes of colour within their spots add a lovely detail to discover up close.The soft sweatshirting base is ideal for comfortable garments you’ll reach for on slower mornings, weekend outings and everything in between. Choose a simple sweatshirt to let the leopards shine, or bring out the colours with contrast cuffs, neckbands and hems.
Olive Groove pairs an earthy backdrop with pink, cream and blue, while Golden Hour brings warmth with a mustard base and softly coloured cats.

Sewing Notes
Recommended Needle:
Jersey Machine Needles
This sweatshirting can be sewn using an overlocker or on a regular sewing machine using a stretch stitch or narrow zigzag. Maraflex thread is also a great option if you prefer to sew stretch fabrics with a straight stitch on your regular machine.
Because the reverse is beautifully soft and fluffy, you may notice a little extra fluff while cutting and sewing — keeping a lint brush or small vacuum handy is useful!
Try not to stretch the fabric as you sew. A walking foot can be helpful, particularly when sewing thicker seams or several layers together.
For hems, use a twin needle, coverstitch machine or stretch stitch to give a neat finish while allowing the fabric to retain its stretch.
If your pattern includes cuffs, neckbands or waistbands, a coordinating ribbing would work beautifully and will give those areas good recovery.
