Orchard Green Rib Trim

105cm length (1 qty) = $26

Meet Orchard Green - organic cotton & Oeko-Tex certified dyes 🌿

Why we love this: the rib that doesn't shout for attention, just quietly finishes the job properly.

A deep pine green, solid rather than striped — this one's for when you want the trim to disappear into the garment rather than stand out from it. Soft stretch cotton-elastane blend, made in France, built to give a neckline or cuff real recovery and shape over time.

A note from the studio: this comes as a pre-cut 105cm strip rather than fabric by the metre, so there's no cutting to length required — just enough for a neckline and cuffs on most patterns. A little stretch recovery is normal with ribbing like this — it's designed to snap back into shape.

Beautiful for: The Tee Shirt or Sidney for a neckline and cuff that blend in rather than compete. The Fielder for a tonal, understated finish. Pairing with a darker pine-toned fabric — like a quilted jacquard in Rushes — for subtle contrast rather than a match.

As all computer monitors show colours differently, we recommend ordering a sample of the cloth to check it is the right colour and weight for your project.
