Measurements of your sweater
This tutorial is planned without pattern, you can sew it so that it is adapted to your morphology by taking your measurements as follows:
Sweater
Measure your build (from shoulder to shoulder) while standing straight
For example C = 42 cm. Do the following calculation: C + 2 cm + 2 cm (sewing value) Example: C = 42 + 2 + 2 = 48 cm.
Pull height
Measure your bust height starting from the shoulder to your size. For example H = 38 cm
Do the following calculation: H + 20 cm + 2 cm (Coutre value) Example: H = 38 + 20 + 2 = 60 cm.
Making steps
Cut the fabric
Bust back and front
Cut two rectangles of fabric according to the measurements you have previously taken. Example: two rectangles of 48 x 60 cm.
Side bands
Cut 2 strips in length = (H x 2) - 2 cm
Example: (60 x 2) - 2 = 118 cm. For the width take 11 cm.
Nodes
Cut 5 strips of 55 x 11 cm.
The neckline:
Fold your back and front in the length direction, locate 12 cm from point A to point B and 7 cm from point A to point C. Draw a pretty curve to create your neckline, cut the 4 tissue thicknesses by following your route
Assemble the shoulders with the place 1cm from the edge. Pass the seams
Measure the perimeter of the neckline (E) and cut a strip of fabric of E X 0.85 cm long by 10 cm wide. Example: 68 x 0.85 cm = 57.8 cm. The tissue strip for the collar will measure 57.8 x 10 cm. Be careful to cut it well in the stretch sense of fabric.
Assemble the collar place against the place by the small sides 1 cm from the edge to the stretch point. Spread the seam with iron.
Fold the collar towards against and mark equidistant benchmarks as in the photo.
Identify the front and backgrounds of your neck. Spin the seam of the collar place against the middle of the middle back. Align the benchmarks of the neck with those collar: shoulders and midfielder in front
Pull the collar so that he marries the neckline and continue to pin.
Prick 1 cm from the edge the 3 thicknesses of fabric. Overward the sewing value. Iron the collar upwards. (Optional: you can sew a stitching on the edge of the cot sewing to maintain the seam value in place)
Nodes
Fold the 4 knots in the length of the right place. Spin a little side as well as the long side. Sew 1 cm from the edge.
Show the angles. Return the 4 bands and go back well
Update the bottom of the front and back of your sweater.
Assemble the small sides of the side strips 2 cm from the edge.
Hear and turn over and go back over the entire length. Fold the band in half to locate your environment and pin it with the shoulder seam.
Pin all along, at the bottom of the sweater, fold down the seam value of the hem (2 cm) inside the garment.
Do the same for both sides. In terms of your knots, pin the nodes perpendicular to the side of the sweater. Prick all the thicknesses 1 cm from the edge and over make up.
Return the seam values to the inside of the garment, the knots outwards. Mark the hem with a 2 cm iron.
Prick the hem 2 cm from the edge. Sew a stitching of keeping on each node band at the level of the side strip.
