SEWING INSTRUCTIONS
turtleneck
Cut out your pattern pieces from the fabric following
the grainline.
Be careful not to stretch the fabric when tracing and
selvedge
cutting. This might result in puckered seams.
For knitted fabric, it’s better to use a ballpoint stretch
needle that will glide through your fabric rather than
puncture it.
To hem the sleeves, fold the edges 1/4 in (0,6 cm)
towards the inside of the fabric and sew along.
Here, I don’t double-fold since the fabric does not fray.

SEWING INSTRUCTIONS

With right sides together, fold the sweater in half,
aligning both side edges and pin in place.
Sew along both sides from the sleeve hemline to the
bottom of the sweater.
I don’t finish the seam with a serger here because
the fabric won’t fray, but you can if you want a more
finished look.
Turn your sweater right side out
Fold the bottom hem of the sweater 1/4 in (0,6 cm)
towards the inside and sew along all the way around.
Fold the neckband in half, right sides facing and sew
along the edge.
