I've been searching for a video like this all morning. As you mentioned, they're all recommending darts, but that would tighten up the bust area even more. Thanks for making this very helpful video.

@jojoremeny I need some advice about sewing binding tape onto stretchy knit tanks without puckering. They're puckering not just at the arm holes, but also at the back of the neckline. Do you have any videos about this issue?

Tack baste temporarily your binding onto armholes .This will ensure you do not picket anything ..Also before you baste binding on ,shape with iron exactly same shape as armhole..This will ensure it's first exactly around armhole . Make sure your tension is good on machines so will not pull and pucker the armhole .. With knits you have to be extra careful.
