How many T-shirts do you own?\u00a0 How ’bout your kids?<\/p>\n

I’m pretty sure 75% of my wardrobe consists of knit tops and comfy shirts (no surprise if you remember this post<\/a>).\u00a0 We all LOVE knits!\u00a0 They’re not fussy, they stretch, they’re so comfortable and unpretentious!\"\"<\/a>(Warhol Dress ensemble<\/a>)<\/p>\n

But when it comes to sewing with knits….why are so many of us afraid of them?<\/p>\n

In the words of Ferris,
\nA: You can never go too far.
\nB: If I’m gonna get busted, it is *not* gonna be by a guy like *that*.<\/p>\n

Okay that doesn’t work.
\nHow about: sewing should never be scary.\u00a0 It’s an adventure.\u00a0 And what’s the worse that can happen?\u00a0 You ruin a $4 piece of fabric?\u00a0 Totally worth it since next time around you’ll be more armed and more skilled to create what you originally had in mind.<\/p>\n

Now I will say it’s hard to justify sewing a knit shirt for myself when there are so many cute ones at my retail fingertips, for under $10.\u00a0 But I really love using thrifted men’s\/women’s T-shirts to create new clothing for my kids.\u00a0 It’s cheap, easy, and fast (like the little green dress<\/a>).<\/p>\n

So….let’s talk about knits.\"\"<\/a>(little yellow swimsuit<\/a>).<\/p>\n

A while back Made by Rae<\/a> did a series called The KNITerviews<\/a>, where various sewers shared their thought and tips on sewing with knits.\u00a0\u00a0 If you haven’t checked them out, it’s really insightful to read through all of them to see where sewers agree and where they differ.\u00a0 I was lucky to join in the banter as well.\u00a0 And since I often receive emails asking about knit fabrics, sergers, etc….I thought I’d share the Q&A here.
\nSo, here we go….
\n——————————————————-
\nQUESTION: Did you ever fear knits?<\/strong><\/p>\n

ANSWER:<\/strong> You know, not really.\u00a0 I remember sewing with some stable knits (non-stretchy) back when I was a teenager to make simple tops.\u00a0 So I think I’ve always just lumped knits in with all the other fabrics. It wasn’t until I started blogging\/sharing projects that I often heard readers say, “I’m so scared to sew with knits!!\u00a0 Do you have any pointers??!”\u00a0 And I was kind of surprised….maybe because my approach to sewing is to just jump in and try something.\u00a0 When a fabric catches my eye (especially if it’s a fiber I’ve never used before), I can’t wait to try it out and see what it does.\u00a0 What’s the worse than can happen?\u00a0 Your machine munches it up into a bazillion ruffles and you have to toss it in the can?\u00a0 Yea, that kind of sucks.\u00a0 But really it’s just fabric. \u00a0\u00a0 So go for it!\u00a0 If you’re never sewn with knits, put aside any preconceived notions you’ve heard and try it!\u00a0 Play naive.\u00a0 Pretend no one’s told you “knits are scary” (cause they’re not).\u00a0 Toss it under your machine and start sewing.<\/p>\n

Okay, sorry for the pep talk. I just think no one should be afraid of sewing. Think of it more as an adventure.<\/p>\n

QUESTION: What types of projects do you usually sew with knit fabric?<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>(Shortie<\/a> \u2022 Sprinkle Shirts<\/a> \u2022 Hobo Sack<\/a> \u2022 90 min shirt<\/a> \u2022 Ruched Leggings<\/a> \u2022 Ernie and Bert Shirts<\/a>)<\/p>\n

ANSWER:<\/strong> I love to use knits for kids’ shirts, lounging pants, blankets, small bags, bedding, leggings, dresses, blah, blah, blah.\u00a0 And I always keep the scraps on-hand to use for T-shirt appliques.\u00a0 You never know when you’ll need a smidgen of red for Ernie’s nose.<\/p>\n

QUESTION: <\/strong>Do you prefer sewing with knits or sewing with wovens?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

ANSWER:<\/strong> I love them both equally.\u00a0 But since I prefer simple patterns on fabric, I’m often drawn to the stripes, dots, and solids that knits typically come in.\u00a0 And sometimes I like to mix knits and wovens together.\u00a0 If I had to break it into percentages though, I probably sew with knits 1\/3 of the time and wovens 2\/3 of the time.\"\"<\/a>(knee pad pants<\/a>)<\/p>\n

QUESTION: Do you have a preference for sewing with a particular type of knit?<\/strong> (Jersey, Interlock, Fleece, Rib knit, etc)<\/p>\n

ANSWER:<\/strong>
\nI really love all types of knits.\u00a0 And….there’s an entire section in my new book—Fabrics A to Z<\/a>—dedicated to knit fabrics, their properties, and tips for sewing with them:But here’s the cliff notes version:<\/p>\n

Jersey<\/strong> (the standard t-shirt fabric) is used for my kid’s shirts and pants<\/p>\n

Jersey with spandex<\/strong> has fantastic stretch and can be a bit slinky.\u00a0 I used some for my beach cover-up last summer.\"\"<\/a>(jersey beach dress<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Interlock<\/strong> is a bit thicker than Jersey and has less stretch but is great for blankets and lightweight jackets\/cardigans<\/p>\n

Fleece<\/strong> can be used for so many things…blankets, vests, jackets, pillows, scarves, hats, embellishments.\u00a0 I love fleece.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"
\n<\/a>(fleece vest<\/a> \u2022 fleece jackets<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Ribbing<\/strong> is used for the cuffs and collars on my kids shirts.\u00a0 I always love to have a variety of colors on-hand so whenever it’s on sale at the store I buy a 1\/2 yard of my favorite shades<\/p>\n

Lycra\/Spandex<\/strong> is wonderful for swimsuits. And though you might think it sounds scary…just go for it!\u00a0 The first time I made a swimsuit I sort of made it up as I went.\u00a0 And it was really fun!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>(otter pop dots suit<\/a>)<\/p>\n

QUESTION: Where do you buy knits?<\/strong><\/p>\n

ANSWER:<\/strong> I buy knits in a variety of places:<\/p>\n

Thrift Shops and Clearance sections:<\/strong> T-shirts from the thrift shop are a fantastic place to find cool prints for kid’s projects.\u00a0 Also check the clearance rack at retail shops like Target, Old Navy, etc.\u00a0 Often size XXL T-shirts are left-over and give you plenty of fabric to work with.
\nLarge fabric retail stores:<\/strong> Joanns, Hobby Lobby, etc often have a decent selection of solid interlocks and some jerseys (little by little they’re getting more)
\nOnline stores:<\/strong> Harts fabric<\/a>, fabric.com<\/a> and other large shops carry some knits
\nLA fabric district:<\/strong> This is where I’ve found the most inexpensive place and interesting looking knits.\u00a0 The Michael Levine store and the FIDM scholarship shop have a good selection and I love being able to touch\/see the fabrics before buying\/\u00a0 Check out my detailed post about fabric shopping and the LA fabric district here<\/a>.
\nSwimsuit Fabric:<\/strong> Spandex World<\/a> is an online shop with tons of options.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>(Goodnight Moon jammies and story<\/a>)<\/p>\n

QUESTION:<\/strong>What brand\/model machine do you use primarily when you sew with knits?\u00a0 Do you recommend it?<\/p>\n

ANSWER:<\/strong> I use a Bernina sewing machine and serger.\u00a0 My machine is nothing fancy, in fact it’s not even digital!\u00a0 But it’s sturdy, all-metal, and a good workhorse.\u00a0 In my opinion all you really need when it comes to sewing (unless you’re into quilting and embroidery) is a standard stitch, zigzag stitch, and button hole options. Having a nice, sturdy machine also helps when sewing with knits and other fabrics which is why is why I love my heavy, all-metal Bernina.<\/p>\n

QUESTION: Do you use a serger?\u00a0 Do you use it more\/less\/same as your machine when it comes to sewing knits?<\/strong><\/p>\n

ANSWER:<\/strong> Yes, but mostly to finish off the edges of my projects. I actually sew my knit projects with a standard machine.\u00a0 People often ask why I don’t sew exclusively with the serger and skip the machine step all together.\u00a0 The reasoning is this….
\nWhen you sew with a serger, the results are pretty final.\u00a0 There’s a small knife in the machine that cuts and trims the edge of the fabric as you go.\u00a0 So if you make a mistake, A) it’s much harder to pick out an overlock stitch (which uses 3-4 threads) and B) once the fabric edge is cut, there’s no going back or letting out the fabric.\u00a0 So I like to sew with my standard machine first–even for knits!–and when I have the project where I’d like it, I serge off the edges for a nice, polished look.
\nYou see, you don’t even need a serger to get started with knits…especially since the edges of the fabric won’t fray or look messy.\u00a0 However….<\/p>\n

QUESTION:<\/strong> Do you have a “default setting” that you use when you’re sewing with knits?<\/p>\n

ANSWER:\u00a0<\/strong> Not really.\u00a0 Again, I’m a fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants sewer.\u00a0 I’m supposed to tell you fancy things like use a ball needle or a walking foot but I don’t do either.\u00a0 I just sew with a normal needle, normal sewing machine, standard foot, and get going.\u00a0 And it works!\u00a0 MY BEST ADVICE<\/strong> though for sewing with knits is NOT to tug on the fabric as you go.\u00a0 Let the fabric feed itself through the machine.\u00a0 If you tug it, the fabric will stretch and pucker (unless that’s the look you’re going for).\u00a0 When using knits as appliqu\u00e9 (such as the ernie shirt or leaf pillows or knee pads), sew slowly and stop every so often to lift the presser foot and allow the fabric underneath to relax and bounce back in place.\u00a0 If you try to sew a circle of knit in one big swoop you’ll end up with a wonky looking project.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>(little entrepreneur tank<\/a>)<\/p>\n

QUESTION: Do you use a walking foot? <\/strong><\/p>\n

ANSWER:<\/strong> Don’t have one, never used one.\u00a0 I hear good things about them.\u00a0 But I’m just simple….get a solid machine with the basics and start sewing.<\/p>\n

QUESTION: Do you use a double needle?<\/strong><\/p>\n

ANSWER:<\/strong> I have one; I’ve never used it (because I hate taking extra steps to do stuff).\u00a0 But I do LOVE the look of a double needle stitch–it looks professional, like retail clothing.\u00a0 So, I just fake it.\u00a0 When finishing off hems on pants and shirts, I sew my first line of the hem then I line the presser foot up about 1\/4 inch over from the first line and sew a second line.\u00a0 It’s fast; it works.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>(Kid pants with lining<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Most of all.\u00a0\u00a0 Just have fun.<\/p>\n
