Petrol blue melange hits a classic, dark colour range with a calm depth. This type of shade appears in many core collections because it works as an alternative to navy and black without becoming too bold. The melange effect gives a more textile look on the shelf.

The quality is often used for rib cuffs, necklines and sleeve finishes on sweatshirts and cardigans, but also for fitted tops, dresses and beanies. 300 g/m² delivers a rib that stands nicely and feels more stable as a main fabric.

A common buyer question is: what is the difference between 2/1 rib and 1/1 rib? 2/1 rib has a more pronounced rib profile and feels more “defined” in structure. It adds more visual depth and a bit more body, especially in heavier weights like 300 g/m².

From a B2B perspective, the colour works well as a stock item because it can be used across seasons and target groups. Many combine it with solid colour jersey knit fabric or jogging qualities to offer matching trims in the same colour direction.

Wash at 30 degrees, inside out. Avoid tumble drying to preserve the rib’s elasticity and the melange look.
