Very thorough sewalong and really like your cardigan. I probably wouldn’t have looked at this pattern but seeing it made up I am convinced to buy it.

We are so happy to hear that!

I always love your sew alongs 😀 So well explained. It turned out so beautifully. I have a small doubt, I had the idea that we should always use zig zag stitch while sewing knit never straight stitches otherwise it wouldn’t stretch. Can someone explain it to me? Thank you

[@joanneroberts1088]

You can use a straight stitch is some areas. Depends if it is going to be very stretched on or over your body. Necks and hem bands like a stretch stitch but side seams can be straight. You can use a straight stitch with maraflex thread and it will have some useful give. Hope that helps.

Great video! Question - could this pattern possibly work with terrycloth fabric?

[@MinervaDotCom]

Yes, that should work really well!

Great - thanks!@@MinervaDotCom

I’m wondering if this would make a great dressing-gown?

[@MinervaDotCom]

Depending on the fabric used, you could fashion this into a dress-gown - You will have to amend the sizing as well Hope this helps!

Defiantly going to make this but did I miss something. When did you use the interfacing?

[@MinervaDotCom]

The fabric was pre interfaced in this video :)

[@MinervaDotCom]
