Fabric Recommendations

Choose knit fabrics with medium stretch for the main body and a contrasting knit for the shoulder flounces and cuffs:

  • Knit fabric of medium stretch from natural or blended fibers (for the main top).
  • Knit fabric of medium stretch from natural or blended fibers in a contrasting color (for the flounces and cuffs).

Additional Supplies

No additional notions are required.

Cutter's Must

When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match!

  • From main fabric:
    • Back – 1 piece
    • Front – 1 piece
    • Neckline facing – 1 piece
    • Sleeve – 2 pieces
  • From main fabric 1:
    • Cuff – 2 pieces
    • Flounce – 2 pieces

Tip: Knit fabric pieces are stitched with a special elastic or narrow zigzag stitch. The hem allowance is topstitched with a twin needle or on a coverstitch machine to maintain elasticity. You can also stitch pieces directly on a 3- or 4-thread overlocker.
