Cutter's Must

If the patterns have a double contour, they include seam allowances. If the contour is single, the patterns do not include seam allowances. Seam allowances: All seams 0.8 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. When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match!

From main fabric:
- Back – 1 piece
- Front – 1 piece
- Sleeve – 2 pieces
- Collar – 1 piece
- Bottom band — 1 piece
- Cuff — 2 pieces

Tip: Knit fabric pieces are stitched with a special elastic or narrow zigzag stitch.

Sewing Instructions

Stitch the shoulder and side seams of the back and front. Overlock the seams and press them towards the back.
Stitch the sleeve seam. Overlock and press the seams. Stitch the cuff into a loop. Fold it in half lengthwise and attach it to the sleeve. Overlock the allowances. Set the sleeves into the armholes, matching the notches. Overlock and press the seams.
Stitch the band into a loop. Fold it in half lengthwise and attach it to the bottom of the garment. Overlock the allowances.
Stitch the collar into a loop. Turn the collar right side out and press. Fold the collar in half, wrong side in. Attach the collar to the neckline, matching the notches. The collar seam is located at the left shoulder seam. Overlock and press the collar attachment seam.
