Additional Supplies

No additional notions are required.

Cutter's Must

  • From main fabric:
    • Back – 1 piece on fold
    • Inner Front – 1 piece on fold
    • Outer Front – 2 pieces
    • Front Placket – 2 pieces
    • Sleeve – 2 pieces
    • Hem Placket – 1 piece on fold
    • Cuff – 2 pieces
    • Back Neckline Facing – 1 piece

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 or on a coverstitch machine to maintain elasticity. You can also stitch pieces directly on a 3- or 4-thread overlock machine.

Sewing Instructions

  1. Serge the upper edge of the Inner Front, fold the allowance to the inside, and topstitch with two parallel lines of stitching to prevent stretching.
  2. Fold each Front Placket in half lengthwise, right side out, and attach it to the Outer Front. Press the allowance towards the Outer Front and serge.
  3. Overlap the right Outer Front onto the left one and baste the Front Plackets together at the lower edge. Place the Outer Fronts on the Inner Front and baste together along the armhole, side and lower edges.
  4. Serge the outer edge of the Back Neckline Facing. Place the facing on the back and stitch along the neckline exactly up to the marked shoulder seam line. Clip the allowances, turn the facing to the wrong side, and press.
  5. Stitch the shoulder seams, inserting the front between the back and the Back Neckline Facing. Press the allowances towards the back and serge.
  6. Stitch the side seams, press the allowances towards the back and serge.
  7. Stitch the Hem Placket into a loop, press the allowance open. Fold it in half lengthwise, right side out, and attach it to the lower edge of the garment. Press the allowance upwards and serge.
  8. Stitch the sleeve seam, press the allowances towards the back and serge. Set the sleeves into the armholes, matching notches, press the allowances and serge.
  9. Stitch the Cuff into a loop, press the allowance open. Fold the Cuff in half lengthwise, right side out, and attach it to the sleeve. Serge the allowance and press it towards the sleeve.
