How to Embroider the Clarice the Reindeer Machine Embroidery Design

What fabric is best for children’s sweatshirts?

Children’s sweatshirts are typically made from soft knit fabric with a density of 280–320 g/m² (8.3–9.4 oz/yd²). This material has a brushed or looped back, making it both cozy and suitable for embroidery. When working with this type of fabric, it’s important to stabilize it correctly to achieve clean, professional results, especially with designs like the Clarice the Reindeer machine embroidery design.

How to embroider on children’s sweatshirts?

1. Choose the right stabilizers

• Use a medium-weight tear-away stabilizer underneath (recommended density: 80 g/m² or 2.5 oz/yd²).
• For loose or textured knit fabrics, place a water-soluble topping film (20–30 microns) on top to keep stitches smooth and even.

2. Hooping the fabric

• Cut the stabilizer slightly larger than the hoop size (for small hoops: 100x100 mm or 4x4 inches).
• Smooth the sweatshirt fabric over the stabilizer and hoop them together, ensuring the fabric is taut but not stretched.
• Add water-soluble film on top before starting the embroidery process.

3. Needles and threads

• Use a 75/11 or 80/12 Ballpoint needle to avoid damaging the knit fibers.
• Polyester embroidery threads are ideal for their durability and vibrant finish.

Additional Tips for Perfect Stitches

• Always test-stitch the design on a similar fabric scrap before embroidering directly on the sweatshirt.
• Remove the water-soluble topping and tear-away stabilizer gently after finishing the embroidery.
