Intermediate. This pattern requires experience working with knit fabrics, managing gathers, and potentially utilizing elastic thread for shirring effects.
Choose well-draping knit fabrics with medium stretch to achieve the desired flow and comfortable fit:
If the patterns have a double contour, seam allowances are included. If the contour is single, the patterns do not include seam allowances. Seam allowances: back bottom edge – 2.0 cm; back neckline edge, back armhole edge, apron side edges – 1.5 cm; other seams 0.7 cm. Attention! First, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can be from 90 cm to 150 cm) to determine how much material you will need.
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.
When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match!
