The waist of the garment can be significantly less than your actual waist. fabric: knit, 80x140 cm 1x front 1x back estimated time: 2h Recommended sequence of work: 1) Print this file (A4, greyscale). Each page has 1 cm margin on all sides for the printer. Assemble the pattern according to the map on page 2. The grey areas indicate overlaps. On the finished paper pattern, no grey areas are visible. 2) Cut out each pattern part from fabric once. Both pattern parts have an axis of reflection, meaning that the paper pattern part only represents half of the actual pattern part. Add generously (3 cm) to all edges for sewing. 3) Sew the shoulders together. 4) Close the side seams. Use zigzag lock stitch. 5) Use a narrow zigzag lock stitch on the hem, the neck, and the armholes. Cut away the waist fabric. Have fun! Please do send in pictures of your finished garment.
