Sewing with stretchy knit fabrics is a bit different than sewing with wovens. Amanda Todaro, a sewing educator from Ditto patterns, gives you an introduction to creating garments with knits, beginning with learning about the different stretches in fabrics, sewing your projects, setting in a shirt sleeve, finishing hems with mock cover stitch, and adding a finished neckband. And while a serger is a knit garment's best friend, learn how you can create most knit garments using only your sewing machine. Learn how to:

• Sew garments with knit fabrics
• Work with a ball point needle and twin needle
• Sew knits on a sewing machine and a serger
• Set in a sleeve
• Finish hems with mock cover stitch
• Add a neckband
