Burda Style For people who sew
Step 1 1. Cutting the fabric and preparing sleeves
I use patterns 1 to 2 sizes smaller for jersey dresses – the more lycra the fabric contains, the smaller size you can get away with. This particular pattern calls for a tight fit, othewise the gathers do not form proper folds.
Prepare slleeves by adding two rows of parallel stitches to the sleeve caps.
