Attention! First of all please print all the paper patterns and lay
them out at the width of fabric you plan to use (usually from
90 to 150 cm) to see how much fabric you will need. Don't
forget to count pair parts and symmetrical parts.
When sewing the garment, pay attention to notches, they

Knitted fabric details are sewn together with special elastic or narrow zig-zag stitch. When serging
cut seam allowances to 0.6 – 0.8 cm. Seam allowance on turnup is stitched with twin needles to
