Fabric suggestions Show/hide details
This pattern is specifically made for knits with a high percentage of stretch and recovery. It will not work in knits without elastane, such as 100% cotton jersey. Choose fabric with at least 50% stretch. The top will have a different feel depending on the weight and thickness of your fabric. Choose a lower weight fabric around 4-6 oz/sq yard for a lounge camisole. Choose a mid-weight 6-9 oz/sq yard for an everyday top. Choose something heavier around 9-12 oz/sq yard for a more compressive, sports bra fit. For beginners, it is recommended to use Cotton with Elastane, as it is more stable and easier to work with than for example Rayon. (Sometimes Elastane is called Spandex in the fiber content.) A rib knit will work in this pattern, but due to it’s very stretchy nature, you should size down once or twice, and it will not be very supportive for larger busts. Your fabric choice will be very important in how the final garment fits you. Any of these fiber combinations will work well: Cotton/Elastane, Rayon/Elastane, Tencel/Elastane, Modal/Elastane, Bamboo/Elastane, Merino/Elastane.
Fabric requirements Show/hide details
150 cm wide 1 meter to 1.5 meters
Supplies Show/hide details
1/2" / 1.5 cm soft elastic Elastic recommendations: Choose a soft elastic, also called lingerie/boxer/knit elastic for a comfortable, low support hold. For a larger bust, or if making an athletic top, you may want to choose a wider and/or harder elastic, called non-roll elastic.
