SILK TOP
MATERIAL: knitted fabric (cotton, viscose).
IF THE PATTERNS HAVE DOUBLE CONTOUR, THE SEAM
ALLOWANCE IS PROVIDED,
IF THE PATTERNS HAVE SINGLE CONTOUR, THE SEAM
ALLOWANCE IS NOT PROVIDED.
SEAM ALLOWANCE:
1 cm for all seams.
ATTENTION! Before sewing, print paper patterns and lay them out according to the linen width (from 90 to 150
cm) to find out how much material you need (do not forget about double and
symmetric details).
WHEN SEWING, BE CAREFUL WITH NOTCHES – THEY MUST BE COINCIDING!
CUTTING:
Fabric:
1. Top - 2 details
2. Tie – 1 detail
OUR ADVICE: To make the
fabric along stitched seams stretch, sew details with narrow zigzag or with
special stretchable stitches. To make the hem stretch, oversew
hem allowance with special oversew stitches (overlock), and then sew it using double needle. This is
also attachable to other edges that should stay elastic.
These
recommendations are not for industry.

1. Press 1 cm of hem into wrong side, for both tops.
2. Fold
the tie along the center, right sides together, then overstitch, turn out and stitch
