Suggested Fabric

To sew this bodysuit, choose knit fabrics with the following properties: 

  • soft, stretchy, medium weight, highly elastic

  • the fiber content should include elastane or spandex and can also include natural fibers (wool, cotton), artificial fibers (viscose), blends (wool + polyester, cotton + polyester, cotton + elastane, etc.), and synthetics (polyester)

  • the following fabrics are recommended: sweater knits, rib knits, lightweight Ponte di Roma.

Attention! We recommend using only elastic fabrics for this bodysuit.

As an additional fabric for the gusset, choose knit fabrics with the same stretch factor as the main fabric but more lightweight.

The bodysuit in the photo is made of sweater knit. The fabric is medium weight, soft, and with a medium stretch. The fiber content is a blend of 10% viscose, 80% acrylic, and 10% spandex. The fabric weight is 200 g/m2. The gusset is made of lightweight jersey fabric.

FABRIC REQUIREMENTS 

  1. Main fabric

  1. Lining fabric for all sizes and heights — 0.15 m (1/8 yd).

IMPORTANT!  When purchasing fabric, please account for shrinkage and buy 5% more than required.

  1. Clear elastic, 1 cm (3/8") wide, for all sizes and heights — 17 cm (6 3/4").

  2. Snap tape, 1.7 cm (5/8") wide, with snaps 1 cm (3/8") apart, for all sizes and heights — 7 cm (2 3/4"). 

  3. Elastic, 0.8 cm (just under 3/8") wide — 43–65 cm (16 7/8–25 5/8"), depending on the size. The exact elastic length is specified in the pattern.

  4. Matching thread — 5 spools (1 spool for the sewing machine + 4 spools for the overlocker).

EQUIPMENT

  • sewing machine for construction

  • overlocker for construction and finishing raw edges. It can be replaced with a stretch overlock stitch or a zigzag stitch on the sewing machine (overlock or zigzag stitch width 2–3 mm, stitch length 2.5 mm)

  • coverstitch or coverlock machine for finishing the garment and sleeve hems, the neckline, as well as the edges of the shaped cutout. It can be replaced with a twin needle on a regular sewing machine that can do a zigzag stitch

  • one-sided foot

  • latch hook. It can be replaced with a large-eye needle.

Important! We recommend using specialty needles when working with knit fabrics (for example, STRETCH, SUPER STRETCH, JERSEY, etc.). These are ballpoint needles, so they part the threads of the fabric you are stitching rather than piercing them.
