Description

Hepburn Turtleneck is a timeless classic that has swept worldwide since Audrey Hepburn brought it to the silver screen in the 1950s. Hepburn Turtleneck represents simplicity and elegance, and it will pair well with a variety of pants and skirts while keeping you cozy on chilly days.

Hepburn Turtleneck features:

• Options for long and three-quarter sleeves
• Double-layered turtleneck
• Close-fitting to accentuate your figure
• Layers feature–print only the sizes you need

Suggested Fabrics

Use a light to medium-weight knit fabric with at least 100% 2-way or 4-way stretch and great recovery. Rib knit, jersey and sweater knit are great choices. If you use fabric with less stretch, you may choose a larger size. Conversely, if you use fabric with more stretch, you may choose a smaller size.

Notions

• 15" (38 cm) of clear elastic to stabilize shoulder seams.

Choosing your Size

• Compare your bust circumference (widest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that fits your bust best. 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 fits your waist best. 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 in 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. All you have to do is print the sizes that you need (see “Printing Instructions” and “Blend Sizes” in the instructions), and blend the lines from one size to the next.
• It is highly recommended that you check your fit by making a test garment with inexpensive fabrics that have similar weight and stretch as your final garment fabrics.
