Suggested Fabrics

Primary Fabric: Use knit fabric with about 25% to 50% horizontal and vertical stretch as well as good recovery. French terry, jersey and sweater knit are good choices. Keep in mind knit fabric with more stretch and drape results in a more relaxed and longer fit, and vice versa. Note that the wrong side of the fabric will be visible when worn, so choose your fabric accordingly.

Interfacing: Use light-weight knit or tricot fusible interfacing.

Choosing your Size

• Compare your bust circumference (fullest part) to the “Body Measurements” table, choose the size that best fits your bust. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
• Compare your waist circumference (narrowest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that best fits your waist. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
• Compare your hip circumference (widest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that fits your hip best. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
• It’s OK to use different sizes for the bust, waist and hip. (See instructions for details.)
• If you are taller or shorter than 5’6” (168 cm), you should consider lengthening or shortening the top (see instructions for details).
• It is highly recommended that you check your fit by making a test garment with inexpensive fabric that has similar weight as your final garment fabric.
