Sewing instructions
General steps to sew this garment. Seam allowance is 1 cm (3/8") unless stated otherwise.
Supplies
- Knit fabric (jersey, interlock or similar)
- Wide waistband elastic
- Matching thread and the right needle
- Print the pattern at 100%, check the test square and cut the pieces following the cutting list. Transfer notches, darts and button marks.
- Cut with the greatest stretch running horizontally (around the body). Use pattern weights instead of pins so the knit does not distort.
- Sew knits with a serger or a stretch stitch (narrow zigzag) and a ballpoint needle.
- Join the side insets to the front pouch and the back.
- Sew the side seams right sides together and press open or finish the allowances.
- Close the waistband into a loop, enclose the elastic and sew it to the waist while stretching.
- Fold up the hems (sleeves and body) and stitch with a twin needle or zigzag so they keep their stretch.
