Sewing knit pants / knit shorts: what you need
- fabric of your choice
- Yarn matching the fabric
- 4 cm wide elastic
- Optional: cord
- Optional for light fabrics: a piece of fleece, e.g. Vlieseline H180 for the cord holes
- Fabric pins / clips
- Iron
- Recommendation: if you are sewing with very light fabric, then (if available) use an additional walking foot for your sewing machine
Suggested fabrics
- light knits
Pay attention to the weight of the fabric to make sure that the fabric is light enough for the pattern. This is the only way to get your garment looking like the mine. My recommendation is <250g / m²
-
Light Jersey, e.g. cotton jersey or viscose jersey
