Level Of Difficulty

Fabric Recommendations

For the best drape and structure, choose knit fabrics that offer body and comfort:

Double-sided dense knit fabrics with low stretch, made from natural or blended fibers

Additional Supplies

Bias tape (approximate length indicated on the front pattern piece)

Cutter's Must

If the patterns have a double contour, seam allowances are included. If the contour is single, seam allowances are not included. Seam allowances: all seams 1 cm; hem allowance for the sweatshirt bottom and sleeve, along the upper edge of the integrated pocket – 0 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!

From main fabric:
- Back - 1 piece on fold
- Front - 1 piece on fold
- Collar stand – 2 pieces

Tip: Knit fabric pieces are stitched with a special elastic or narrow zigzag stitch. When serging, trim allowances to 0.8 cm. 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.
