Thank you so much! 🥰

🥰🥰🥰

Happy I could help! 🥰

Thank you! I’m happy it will help!

Thank you for this great pattern.

Yes sometimes adding that extra fabric can make the fit smaller. I would definitely size up if you are finding the fit small. Each size is an inch larger in diameter so the next size up should fit him :)

@@toothandeye Thanks so much.

That sounds gorgeous! I also have a tutorial for making them reversible if you want the seam concealed instead: ua-cam.com/video/GGslWGDgsVc/v-deo.html

Both are babylocks! The regular sewing machine is the babylock Rachel. Hope that helps!

You can use a straight stitch or serge/overlock

Oh yay! I’m so happy it turned out! 🥰

No worries 🥰 You could try the hand gathering method with an upholstery thread (or even a fishing line) or you could do the elastic method with an upholstery thread.

@@toothandeye Awesome thanks a bunch !

Most of these ruffle techniques should work for any type of fabric. If you are not sure, it would be best to do a small test strip to see how well it holds before jumping into your main garment construction.

Ok thank you so much!!@@toothandeye

You could use buttons instead or even an elastic, but if you are completely omitting the zipper opening and using a non stretch fabric you won’t be able to get it on or off.

@@toothandeye I appreciate the quick response! I am not concerned about wearability, just if the pattern needs to be altered.

If you’re not concerned about being able to wear it then you could just omit the zipper and sew up that whole side like a regular seam. No alterations really required for that.

Thank you! Really appreciate it :) @@toothandeye

You would have to take in the full sides of the skirt or you could just adjust the elastic waistband, but the skirt will be a lot more flowy.

Definitely a great suggestion!

Faux fur can be pretty challenging to work with, quite the ambitious beginner project! You would want lighter interfacing for heavier fabric. The interfacing is just to help the brim hold its shape and structure.

@@toothandeye i’m going to develop my skills over the next few months and then hopefully be able to go for the faux fur hat by mid year. I appreciate your response 💕

Definitely! You can only learn and get better by doing!

No worries! 🥰

I just used a simple black quilting cotton, but you could using something similar, but with a pattern. Once finished these can be reversible!

@@toothandeyethank you!!!

The stretch would be horizontal so it can stretch and form to your feet. For the cuff you can cut out two, one for each sock.

Sorry I missed this comment! You could do a stretchy velvet, but I wouldn’t cut the velvet on a bias as it already has stretch. You could size down, but it really depends on the stretch. Sizing down too much could make the style be snug instead of flowy. I would sew it up at your regular size until the point of the waist band, without hemming and do a test fit first. That way you can always take it in before the finishing seams. You might want to serge or zig zag stitch the seams instead of doing a French seam as well.

Thank you! I’m so happy it was helpful 🥰

Thank you for such a nice comment! It really means a lot 🥰

No worries! 🥰

Thank you for such a thoughtful comment! Not everyone has access to, or can afford, every specialized sewing piece so I like to add alternative ways to create similar things with the most basic set up 🥰

Happy it helped! 🥰

Super easy way to use up left over fabrics!

So happy it turned out!

The pattern and info is available here: toothandeye.com/collections/accessories/products/sewing-pattern-crew-socks

They are just reinforcement stickers for the hanging holes in the patterns!

I love that! 😍

Happy you enjoyed the tutorial! 🥰

Yes! It sounds like you need to decrease the bust size a bit. At the end of the main tutorial I show a couple ways on how to adjust the bust to fix this :)

@@toothandeye thank you I'll try this and post the results in cmnts ❤️❤️

Yay! Any questions along the way definitely feel free to ask me! 😍

Ahhhhhmazing! It’s such a fun fabric!

Fabric plays a big part into how a pattern will turn out. Practicing with a simple quilter’s cotton and taking your time to cut out and pin each piece as accurately as you can will really go a long way. You can even try hand basting each piece before sewing with the machine. Unfortunately, patience and practice are the only ways to find success while sewing.

You can! Just stretch out the elastic as you sew!

You could definitely do that! My wing templates are free so you can do anything you wish with them 😘

Definitely! Just make sure you zigzag stitch right along the edge

​@@toothandeyeawesome, ty!

Seam allowance is included in all my patterns unless stated otherwise. This particular pattern has a 1.5cm or roughly 5/8” seam allowance :)

Glad you like it!

Thank you so much! 🥰

Yay! I’m so happy it helped!

I don’t have a link for my sewing machine, but the one I’m using in the video is the Babylock Imagine. As for my patterns I make them by hand then finish them off in illustrator and photoshop.

It’s perfect for left over fabric scraps too!

Trial and error would be the easiest method for beginners. You can try printing off the pattern at a larger scale (105%, 110%, etc) and making a test sock. Or you can print off the pattern, assemble it, cut it in half length and width wise, then spread those pieces out by a 1/4”, tape them on paper, and recut that for a larger size. Only cut and spread the cuff width wise. If you made the sock exactly to your measurements they would be too lose because of the stretch of the fabric.

It is called a sweatband! I don’t have an alteration video on how to add one, but you could easily sew one on to the bottom of the lining before adding that or you could omit the lining and just add a sweatband instead.
