Important! When purchasing fabric, please account for shrinkage and buy 5% more than required.

2. Matching thread, 5 spools (1 spool for the sewing machine and 4 spools for the overlocker)

- Sewing machine for construction;

- Overlocker for construction and for finishing raw edges. This may be replaced with a stretch overlock stitch or a zigzag stitch on the sewing machine (overlock or zigzag stitch width 2-3mm, stitch length 2.5mm);

- Coverstitch or coverlock machine for finishing the garment hem. If such a machine is not available, you may finish the hem with a twin needle on a home sewing machine with a zigzag function;

- Ballpoint needles suitable to your fabric.

IMPORTANT! For knit projects, we recommend using special sewing needles for stretchy knit fabrics (e.g. STRETCH, SUPER STRETCH, JERSEY, etc.). When sewing, a ball-shaped needle point pushes the knit loops apart without piercing the threads.
