Course Description

Overview

Description Bring a superior fit to every knit garment you sew with designer Dyanne Marte. Fit bodices beautifully as you adjust for figure variations in the bust, waist, and shoulders. Correct gaping armholes and necklines and reshape too-tight necklines. Achieve a full range of motion and a tailored look by altering armscye seams, getting the right amount of ease in the biceps, taking in forearms, and setting in knit sleeves perfectly. Discover tips for altering a bodice that’s too long or short and hem knit garments with confidence. Solve rise and thigh-fitting issues for knit pants. Plus, hone your fit even further with jelly tape, elastic, and banding. Consistently sew fabulous-fitting knit garments that are a joy to wear.
