This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Sewing With Knits: 5 Wardrobe Essentials »

Instructions

I used Meg's tutorials to help sew a commercial pattern - Simplicity 2054.

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Clothing

For: Women

Style: Casual, Mod


Materials

Poly/cotton/spandex fabric, clear plastic seam stabilise, knit needle, thread

What was your inspiration?

I've wanted a striped tshirt dress for ages. I love striped things!

What are you most proud of?

Everything. I have only made one knit garment before and this dress looks really well made (IMO!) and I love the way the neckline sits, and how the shoulder seams are stabilised

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Knits are the best!

Thanks Susan :) I didn't adjust the neckline of this pattern no. It's not one that came with the course, it's Simplicity 2054 - I highly recommend it!
