I do a lot of darning by using a small piece of soft interfacing ironed to the back, over the hole, and then I hand sew it with a matching thread making sure not to pull it too tight. A good press afterwards flattens things down.
Often it will just look like a slub in the fabric.

Nicole replied to the topic Advice on coverstitchers in the forum off topic 9 years ago
Slightly off topic but after 3 years of aggravation I have had my overlocker/coverstitch serviced and set to purely a coverstitch.
I really, really wish I had just gone with a coverstitch in the first place.

Nicole replied to the topic Features of a great yoga bag? in the forum off topic 9 years ago
I used to do yoga, sigh, I love the idea of a bag!
A bottle holder sounds fab, something with a elastic casing top to hold all sizes.
How about a ring attached to the inside to clip keys to?I have a new nappy bag which has lots of mesh pockets on space dividers, it is fab as I can separate but see the contents.

Nicole replied to the topic Finally made my Metro T in the forum liesl + co: metro t-shirt 9 years ago
That sounds about right to me!
Knits may be quick to sew but to get a quality looking garment you have to put in the time to get the grain straight and the fabric smooth.
I like to lay my fabric out a few hours before cutting to let it relax and re shape. Ball point pins are great as is using a combination of pins and weights.

This is one of the few O+S pattern I don’t have so I don’t feel “qualified” to give an answer.;) But if it’s tight under the arms, I would think going ahead and making the next size up would help with the jumper being too tight under the arms. Sorry I couldn’t be more of a help!
