Fabric Recommendations

Choose knit fabrics with medium stretch for optimal drape and comfort:

  • Knit fabrics of medium stretch made from natural or blended fibers

Additional Supplies

No additional notions are required.

CUTTER'S MUST

  • From main fabric:
  • 1. BACK PANEL – 1 QTY on fold
  • 2. FRONT PANEL – 1 QTY on fold
  • 3. FRONT YOKE – 1 QTY
  • 4. SLEEVE – 2 QTY
  • 5. COLLAR – 1 QTY
  • 6. CUFF – 2 QTY

ATTENTION! Before starting, check that the head can pass through the COLLAR sewn into a ring.

Tip: Cut pieces from knit fabrics are sewn 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 sew pieces directly on a 3- or 4-thread overlocker.

Sewing Instructions

  1. Along the upper edge of the FRONT PANEL, stitch with loosely tensioned stitches and gather. Attach the FRONT YOKE to the FRONT PANEL. Overlock the SEAM ALLOWANCES and press upwards.
  2. Stitch the shoulder and side SEAM ALLOWANCES, overlock and press towards the BACK PANEL.
  3. Stitch the COLLAR into a ring. Fold in half lengthwise and attach into the neckline, placing the COLLAR seam at the left shoulder seam.
  4. Stitch the SLEEVE seam. Along the bottom of the SLEEVE, stitch with loosely tensioned stitches and gather. Stitch the CUFF into a ring. Fold in half lengthwise and attach to the SLEEVE. Overlock the SEAM ALLOWANCES and press upwards. Set the SLEEVES into the armholes. Overlock the SEAM ALLOWANCES and press.
  5. Overlock the bottom edge of the garment. Fold to the wrong side, press and topstitch.

Order Pattern

Quick size selection

For the pattern to draft correctly, keep your measurements within the recommended range: bust/chest 88–112 cm and height 164–182 cm.

You can still order outside this range, but a correct draft is not guaranteed and such orders are placed entirely at your own risk.
