Sewing instructions

General steps to sew this garment. Seam allowance is 1 cm (3/8") unless stated otherwise.

Supplies

  • Four-way stretch fabric
  • Swim elastic and swim lycra
  • Matching thread and the right needle
  1. Prewash and press your fabric before cutting so it will not shrink after sewing.
  2. Print the pattern at 100%, check the test square and cut the pieces following the cutting list. Transfer notches, darts and button marks.
  3. Cut with the greatest stretch running horizontally (around the body). Use pattern weights instead of pins so the knit does not distort.
  4. Sew knits with a serger or a stretch stitch (narrow zigzag) and a ballpoint needle.
  5. Join the raglan sleeves to the front and back; watch the notches (double notch = back).
  6. Sew the outseams, then the inseams of each leg.
  7. Put one leg inside the other, right sides together, and sew the crotch seam in one go, matching the inseams.
  8. Sew swim elastic to the wrong side of the neckline, armholes and leg openings with slight stretch; fold it over and zigzag.
  9. Fold up the hems (sleeves and body) and stitch with a twin needle or zigzag so they keep their stretch.
