THE CLASS

The Layover cardigan is the perfect final touch to any outfit! A front tie V neck cardi, the Layover is meant to be worn over t-shirts, blouses and dresses. The pattern includes 2 sleeve options: a long sleeve with an elasticated cuff and a simple short sleeve. The neckline is finished with a self bias binding - a great skill to have in your back pocket! You will have the option to make either the short sleeve version in this class.

You'll leave with a finished top, a ton of new skills, and the confidence to start working on your next project.

This pattern is size-inclusive and is designed to fit bust measurements up to 55".

SKILL LEVEL

This class is intended for Confident Beginners - you should know how to thread a sewing machine, wind the bobbin, and do basic stitching. It's ok if you haven't sewn a garment or used a sewing pattern or serger before!

If you want to take this class but you don't have these skills yet, you can sign up for our Learn to Sew Series. If you do, you'll have sewing machine basics down and be ready for this class by the class date.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

This class will cover the following skills:

✿ Taking your own measurements & interpreting a size chart
✿ Using and adjusting a sewing pattern
✿ Serger basics
✿ Hemming
✿ Sleeve insertion
✿ Sewing darts
✿ Inserting elastic cuffs
✿ Creating and using bias binding & ties
✿ And more!

WHAT'S INCLUDED

The Layover Cardigan sewing pattern is included in the cost of the class and will be printed for you when you arrive. You'll also receive a digital file (and instructions) so you can re-use the pattern as many times as you want in the future.

You will need to purchase fabric, and notions in the shop before the class (and you should leave time to pre-wash your fabric). Come by and we'll help you pick out something suitable that matches your style!

If you have your own sewing machine and want to use it, feel free to bring it with you (just make sure you have all the components including bobbins, foot pedal, etc). If you prefer, you can use one of our studio machines. We will also provide sergers.

This class will be taught by Taylor.
