    Another really useful video.....I can't imagine why these technique videos are less popular - I find it useful to see different ways of doing something. Even if you aren't going to use the technique straight away, you remember that you've seen the video and can go back to it when you do need it. Thanks very much.

    Years ago when I started sewing my husband’s shirts my mother showed me your lateral method. Instead of trying to get the bottom of the yoke seam pulled through to one side she told me to do half from one side then pull it back out then do the other half from the other side matching the seam up in the middle. This works well with stiffer material rather than trying to get it all out on the one side. Thanks so much for sharing all the different methods. I get sew much from your videos and love what you make.

    Thank you for a clear, detailed video. I've used the burrito method many times, but always on button down shirts. I was never sure if it was possible on a pull-over shirt (and too lazy to make a mock-up and try it). Your sample looks like a pull-over, and as I suspected, you can just turn everything through the armholes. Great tip!

Last fall I tried to sew the Love Notions Rhapsody. It was a fail due to poor fabric choice. However, I was able to sew the yoke correctly. Yay! I plan on giving the pattern another go now that I have more experience and understand a bit more about fabrics. I will be referencing this video when I sew the yoke. In my mind I’m much more accomplished than I actually am!🤣

    With yokes, I have another technique. Mine will leave a visible seam.
    Sew either the shoulders or back as a sandwich first. Then sew only the front piece(s) to the other side of the yoke.
    On the inside, the shoulders or back will be loose unfinished. Tuck the raw edge(s) under by the same amount as the seam. Pin to the seam.
    You can sew by hand (whip stitch) or machine stitch in the ditch to close the layers together.
    I hope you understand what I am trying to explain.

    Very nice summary! I like to see the previous garments, too, anyway. I have seen your "lateral enclosing" pull-through method in one other place, but I can't remember. The person didn't give it a name, it was just something like "Step 11...do this..." If I recall rightly (big "if"), he used that technique to enclose the armscye seams of a lined sleeveless top. He pulled laterally the top seams to the front, stitched to where the fabric was bundled too tight, then pulled through to the other direction (back) and stitched the other parts. In his photos it looked very good. My version looked super wacky. (Btw, I am disappointed in Chrome's spellchecker, that it underlines "armscye".)

    • @LiftingPinsandNeedles
      @LiftingPinsandNeedles  3 роки тому

      The "lateral enclosing" is what I've done for decades, and it does make more sense to me. Love it for little areas and it can work in other areas of garments too. Seems like the burrito is all you see in pattern instructions though :)

I appreciate all the work you put into your videos.

    • @LiftingPinsandNeedles
      @LiftingPinsandNeedles  2 роки тому +1

      The sagebrush seems to only have a double yoke in the front. The back yoke is a single layer. I’d sew the front seam that has the gathers in between first and then the shoulders. You are only doing the burrito in the front.

      I’m not sure what you are asking in the context of this yoke video. The yokes don’t interfere with the sleeves at all.

      Sorry I may have not made myself clear I have been watching all your videos on vnecklines woven and knit fabrics series and I wanted to add sleeves to a lined vneck top without a neck band but not sure at what stage I add the sleeves if it has a lining I hope I am making sense hard to explain

      Hi, I’m not able to offer free or paid one on one consulting. I’m not even familiar with the pattern you are mentioning. There’s no way I can help you via messages here in a good way.

    Your lateral method actually IS traditional. It is what most people did before the burrito roll method was invented.

      That’s how I did it when I started sewing. Seems like no one does it anymore.
