Also works well with:
- knit fabrics with medium recovery including:

Tips:
- Fabrics with approximately 50% stretch produce the intended fit.
- If your main fabric has less than 50% stretch, use a rib knit with at least 50% stretch for the neckline, cuffs, and hem band.
- Stable knits with little or no spandex create the boxiest silhouette.
- Modal jerseys can curl while sewing and may be more challenging for beginners.

- Beginner. Designed specifically for sewists making their first knit garment.

Skills you will learn from the instruction booklet/video tutorial:
- sewing with knit fabrics

- attaching a neckband
- attaching cuffs

100% recommend. This is now officially my favorite pattern. I have already made 3 pieces which are now the highlights of my wardrobe.

MARIYA

Such a great pattern for a sweatshirt! Clear, concise instructions (I especially appreciate information about different stitch options when working with knits) and the sweatshirt came out beautifully. Can't wait to wear when the weather cools off more.
