Level Of Difficulty

Fabric Recommendations

Select knit fabrics with a medium degree of stretch to achieve the intended fit and drape:

  • Medium-stretch knit fabric, especially striped varieties
  • Natural or blended fiber knits

Additional Supplies

  • Knit fusible interfacing

Cutter's Must

If the patterns have a double contour, seam allowances are included. If the contour is single, the patterns are without seam allowances. Seam allowances: all seams 1 cm. Hem allowance for the bottom edge of the long sleeve and sleeve – 1.5 cm. Attention! First, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can be from 90cm to 150cm) to determine how much material you will need (do not forget to account for paired and symmetrical pieces). When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match! Attention! Markings on the patterns are made on the right side.

  • From main fabric:
    • Back – 1 piece on fold
    • Front 1 – 1 piece
    • Front 2 – 1 piece
    • Front 3 – 1 piece
    • Front 4 – 1 piece
    • Front 5 – 1 piece
    • Sleeve – 2 pieces
    • Front neckline facing – 1 piece
    • Back neckline facing – 1 piece
  • From fusible interfacing:
    • Back neckline facing – 2 pieces
    • Front neckline facing – 2 pieces

Tip: Knit fabric pieces are stitched with a special elastic or narrow zigzag stitch. When serging, trim seam allowances to 0.8 cm. The hem allowance is topstitched with a twin needle to maintain elasticity. You can also stitch pieces directly on a 3- or 4-thread overlock machine.
