*****
MATERIALS NEEDED:
Fabric: up to a yard of a 4 way stretch knit fabric - I used an ITY Knit (avoid super lightweight knits if you’re new to sewing with stretch fabric, as extremely light knits can be hard to sew)
Spaghetti strap tank top to use as a pattern (it won’t get cut up or destroyed)
Sewing Machine: this is the machine I use: amzn.to/2NUixy3 *
Ball Point Needles: these are what I use: amzn.to/3ehIgvi *
Thread: this is my favorite because it’s strong & durable (I've found its worth buying better quality thread because cheaper thread breaks a lot, especially on stretch fabric): amzn.to/2TEiTbr *
Scissors: this is a great affordable set I’ve had for years: amzn.to/2NMnZBl *
(Optional) Walking Foot: if you’re using a stretch fabric that sews really wavy, a walking foot can help it sew smoother. Here’s the one I use with my Singer machine: amzn.to/2NkhoxP *
Pins
Tape Measure
Iron

This is a super versatile shirt that can be used as a cute top, as a camisole to wear under other shirts, tucked into skirts, worn under jackets, etc. I plan on making several in some solid colors to match a lot of things in my closet! Happy sewing and stay safe and healthy.

    Thank you thank you thank you!! I have sensory processing issues that make most clothes very uncomfortable and a few years ago i found some dresses with this exact neckline type that are the most comfortable things ive ever worn. The store doesnt sell them anymore and they are starting to look ratty since i wear them on rotation every day (i bought enough so i wear each one about once every two weeks) but even with that ive started being embarassed going out in public wearing them. Ive considered duplicating them myself for months but was intimidated by the knit fabric and how to do the neckline and thin straps but you solved the mystery for me and i cant wait to try and make myself some new dresses ❤

I have a leggings tutorial I made a few years ago on the channel, it's a little outdated but it might help... I hope to update it this fall if I have time! It should come up if you search Comicat Creations Leggings. I really want to make a shorts tutorial but unfortunately I'm not sure if I'll get to it this summer, but if I don't I also have a loungewear/pajama pant tutorial with an elastic waistband I made a couple years ago that you could follow and make a pair of stretch shorts the same way, but just use shorts as a guide instead of pants... here's that video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/a5qH2K2go9C9qJc.html I hope that helps!

    I love this fabric too! I saw some recently in different color schemes on LA Finch Fabrics (where I bought it from) and wanted all the colors lol 😄 Thank you so much! No of course I don't mind you asking! I have never been big on patterns - I have a really hard time following them and understanding them, and I'm amazed at how many people have commented saying the same thing... eventually I just started playing around trying to make things based on what I had instead and it worked so much better for me, and I'm so excited that it's helped other people as well!
