FABRIC REQUIREMENTS

Main fabric
IMPORTANT! When purchasing fabric, please account for shrinkage and buy 5% more than required.
-
Lightweight knit interfacing, 140 cm (55") wide, for all sizes in all heights — 5 cm (2"). Straight-grain fusible stay tape, 1 cm (3/8") wide
-
Elastic, 4 cm (1 5/8") wide — 115–142 cm (1 1/4–1 1/2 yd), depending on the size. The elastic length is specified in the pattern
-
Twill tape — 1.5–2 m (1 5/8–2 1/8 yd)

Matching thread — 5 spools (1 spool for the sewing machine + 4 spools for the overlocker)
EQUIPEMENT
-
sewing machine for construction
-

-
overlocker for construction and finishing raw edges. This may be replaced with a stretch overlock stitch or a zigzag stitch on the sewing machine (overlock or zigzag stitch width 2–3 mm, stitch length 2.5 mm)

IMPORTANT! We recommend using specialty needles when working with knit fabrics (for example, STRETCH, SUPER STRETCH, JERSEY, etc.). When sewing, a ball-shaped needle point pushes the knit loops apart without piercing the threads.
