Level Of Difficulty

Fabric Recommendations

Select knit fabrics with moderate stretch for optimal comfort and drape:

  • Medium stretch knit fabrics
  • Natural fiber knits (e.g., cotton jersey, bamboo jersey)
  • Blended fiber knits (e.g., cotton-modal blends, poly-cotton blends)

Additional Supplies

  • Knit binding (for neckline and sleeve hems)

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: hem allowance – 1.5 cm, other seams 1 cm. Attention! First, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can range 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

Tip: Knit fabric pieces are stitched with a special elastic or narrow zigzag stitch. When serging, trim seam allowances to 0.6 – 0.8 cm. The hem allowance is topstitched with a twin needle to maintain elasticity.

Sewing Instructions

  1. Stitch shoulder seams, press allowances towards the back and serge.
  2. Fold the binding with the garment right sides together and stitch the neckline edge. Fold the binding up, press allowances towards the garment and topstitch 0.5 cm from the stitching line.
  3. Set sleeves into open armholes, press allowances and serge.
  4. Fold the binding with the sleeve hem right sides together and attach. Fold the binding down, press allowances towards the sleeve and topstitch 0.5 cm from the attaching seam.
  5. Stitch side seams and sleeve seams in one continuous seam, press allowances towards the back and serge.
  6. Serge the bottom edge of the garment, press to the wrong side and topstitch.
