Bella + Canvas 1005 - Women's Baby Rib Short Sleeve V-Neck Tee - Yellow

The Bella + Canvas 1005 is the Women's Baby Rib Short Sleeve V-Neck Tee, a 5.8 oz 100% Airlume cotton 1x1 baby rib spun to 30 singles in a contoured women's fit, the blank a decorator reaches for when a women's order wants the snug, textured rib hand and a shaped V-neck rather than a flat jersey crew. It is the tee for any decorated women's range pitched at a fitted, retail-boutique look: soft fashion-fit merch, festival and lifestyle lines, layering pieces, and the boutique programs that want a ribbed texture and a contoured body. The body is a 5.8 oz 1x1 baby rib of 100% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton spun to 30 singles, with side seams, a soft shaped V-neck, a 3/8 inch binding at the neck and sleeves and a custom contoured fit that follows the body. The size range runs S through 2XL, in 10 solid colours such as Black, Navy, True Royal, Red, Plum, Chocolate, Pink, Baby Blue, Yellow and White, all on the same 100% cotton recipe, so a print behaves the same across every colour. The Deep Heather in the wider line runs a 52/48 cotton/poly recipe, but it is not part of this stocked colour set.

The 1005 decorates as a 100% cotton rib, the easiest substrate to print, with one constraint, the 1x1 rib ridges telegraph through a print, so keep the art bold and simple and avoid fine halftone that breaks across the rib. For water-based and discharge inks, the 100% cotton body discharges cleanly for the softest possible no-feel hand, the standout route on a fitted rib tee because the ink sinks into the cotton and keeps a soft drape. For DTG, the cotton face takes the ink opaque and sharp and needs only a white underbase on the dark grounds, but expect the rib to texture the print, so favour a bold mark over fine detail. For DTF, the transfer bonds at standard heat-press settings; use a film with some flex so it moves with the rib's mechanical stretch, and keep the art bold. For screen printing with plastisol, the solid cotton body takes a crisp opaque print with standard inks and no poly-blocking underbase, print across the rib with a bold design and run a soft, flexible ink with a reduced cure so it keeps a gentle hand on a fitted tee. For embroidery, keep a left-chest design light over a cut-away stabiliser, since the contoured single-layer rib can pucker under a dense crest. For vinyl, a soft stretch HTV presses cleanly and moves with the rib; keep pieces modest on the contoured body. Sublimation does not apply, since cotton will not hold disperse dye and the tee is piece-dyed.

The reorder note specific to this style: treat it as a 100% cotton rib, so lean on water-based and discharge for the softest hand, run standard plastisol with no underbase on the solids and a white underbase only under DTG on the darks, and keep every design bold and simple so the rib does not break fine detail. Use a flexible ink or stretchable film so the print moves with the rib's mechanical stretch.
