    Thank you Shona for such a comprehensive video. I bought some of the bamboo Jersey and made my brother a polo shirt for his birthday. He had never worn anything so soft before and it was so lovely to sew.

    Thank you! Using some of your tips about working with jersey I’ve just make some lounge pants (Luna) and a tee top (Indigo) for my daughter out of your gorgeous raspberry viscose jersey. They feel so luxurious. This new video was really useful for me as I want to make myself some jumpers and sweatshirts so now I’ve got some inspiration for what to use in the heavier weight class. Plus I want to make some PJs so I think the bamboo could be good for that

    Great informative video thank you. Can anyone tell me about sweatshirt fabric please. Is it considered jersey too? I have some that I bought online and it is definitely knit but has no stretch. Do I still need to use a jersey pattern for it or would it suit a woven pattern better ? New to all of this so would appreciate any guidance from those in the know. Thanks

    • @suek7086
      @suek7086 4 года назад +1

      I recently found out that it should be used for woven patterns unless it has some stretch. Some sweatshirt fabric does have stretch. I hope this helps.

    • @catherineseery
      @catherineseery 4 года назад

      Sue K thanks for your reply. That's the way I was heading so great to have an experienced opinion. A lot of patterns need knit for top and woven for bottom so I think I'll just need to make separates. Hope you have a raft filled weekend

    Great and informative video! In the cottonJersey, what is the fabric called when it is 90% cotton and elasticize? Is there a special name? I am in the US and having the worst time trying to find the type of cotton Jersey that is a little bit heavier than a tee shirt. The weave looks the same on the right and wrong side of fabric and has more stretch one way than the other. I have used it for one layer for masks and it was perfect, but ran out. I tried Interlock, and it was too thin. The fabric must be breathable. I was thinking Ponte medium weight. What do you think? Help please.

    @abigailsmith962 4 года назад

    This is just the video I needed, thank you! I want to sew with knits but I had no idea of the difference between them. The other thing I find difficult when shopping online is that patterns often say to use a fabric with "at least 25% stretch" for example, and there are little lines to show it needs to stretch from one to the other, but I can't work that out over the internet and it never seems to give that information in the fabric description🤔 Btw did you film this pre-lockdown? I didn't think anywhere was open for fabric.

    • @abigailsmith962
      @abigailsmith962 4 года назад

    • @suek7086
      @suek7086 4 года назад

      I have heard that some email the online companies and ask about amount of stretch if it isn’t listed in the description. The company I order from the most often, in the US has the information in the description. I find it very helpful for when I order online.
