Comment inHow Do I Knit This Sweater?

Girls, I came across this simple-looking sweater. I'm not a big expert in knitting, does anyone have a proper pattern? At first glance, everything seems clear: stockinette and garter stitch, but I don't see how the ar...

Comment inKnitted Headband With a Bow and a Cable

Won't the knotted edge pull the headband too tight? It's not as stretchy as a regular edge. Yes, you're right, the knotted edge isn't as stretchy. But the headband will still be seamed with a stretchy seam. And the pa...

Comment inKnitted Headband With a Bow and a Cable

Headbands like this are really handy in our weather, especially since almost all jackets have hoods. If it suddenly turns cold, you can bundle up. The only thing is, I'd do the top and bottom with a knotted edge. It's...

Please tell me how to fix a pants fitting defect. There are folds on the back panels of the pants, running from the outer to the inner seam. I did the steam pressing. They fit well in the front. A defect like yours so...

Comment in1940s Style Trousers

Take a look, I found this as well. It is certainly not from the 40s, but it does have various pleat options. In general, I think there is enough information here for a tailor.

Friends, does anyone have a pattern for men's trousers in the 1940s fashion (wide and with pleats at the top), preferably for suspenders? Good afternoon! As far as I understand, you are talking about wide-leg trousers...

Comment in3 Safety-First Ideas for Repurposing Old Toys

I really liked the idea of cutting a toy in half and adding a refrigerator magnet. Using the back half could be even more fun—it would look as if a tiger were climbing into the fridge.

Comment inBeautiful sweater for autumn

I've always thought aran patterns were the most beautiful! Ninel, look what I found. It seems to be exactly this pattern. Between the arans is a seed stitch, but offset by a row. And the diamonds are a-la cables. The ...

Comment inTailcoat pattern

Ladies and gentlemen, does anyone happen to have a pattern for a men's tailcoat? It would be nice if the pattern were vintage, from around the 1910s. I need it for a ball. Well, I didn't find any 1910 manuscripts, but...

Comment inThigh bands: just another fashion hype or a real lifesaver?

To be honest, I was already thinking about cutting up old tights) I have to try it, I really like the idea! I like it too, but I'm thinking more towards Lycra. Somehow, I don't trust lace. I feel like it would tear qu...

Comment inThigh bands: just another fashion hype or a real lifesaver?

Interesting. Could you take wide elastic lace and sew it? I think that's a good option; you could choose silk or cotton so it doesn't irritate the skin. I think you can. The main thing is that the width should be suff...

I would also like some advice on how to reinforce pockets. I often have to sew them up for my husband because he loves carrying everything in his pockets. Oh, I know that feeling. Do I understand correctly that you're...

Comment inVarieties of collars on men's shirts

A buttoned collar is a nightmare for a beginner seamstress. If you don’t have experience, you shouldn’t take on a model like this. I made these buttonholes by hand the first time; I was afraid to use the machine. And ...
