Description

This class is a 2 week class introducing sewing with knit fabrics (yes, it is different than sewing on woven fabrics!!) This is an intermediate level class which means that students should have taken several workshop/beginner level classes and have a solid foundation on sewing before enrolling.

In this class, students will learn how to sew knit fabrics by constructing a shirt. Students will learn about pattern layout and cut out their own patterns.

We will be making the t-shirt in the picture. I will provide the pattern to use. Students can decide if they’d like to use one fabric (for both the bodice and the sleeves), or if they’d like to have 2 different fabrics, as pictured.

I feel like it’s always easier for students to select their own fabric for clothes, since everyone has their own unique style/taste. If selecting fabric is too overwhelming for you, then I can supply that for you at an additional cost of $10. Please let me know at check out if you would like me to provide the fabric for you. Some good knit fabrics to look for include: double brush poly (my favorite!), jersey/jersey interlock, waffle knit, french terry, cotton spandex, ponte de roma…to name a few. The names of the fabric type will be on the end of the fabric bolt, and most knits can be found together in the same aisle.  Joann Fabrics is still open! However, they do require a 2 yard minimum. They do have a clearance section at the back of their store and usually have a good selection of knits.  PREWASH YOUR FABRIC before class; remember-fabric shrinks!

I do highly recommend purchasing sewing clips when using knit fabrics. Regular sewing pins can leave holes in the fabric if you’re not careful, so I always use clips when I sew with knits. Students should also get a jersey or ballpoint needle for their machine.
