About This Lesson

The first lesson in the third level.

This tank and shorts are constructed with easy skills similar to those used in Level 2. This allows the student to focus only on the new methods of working with knit fabrics without having to learn new construction techniques at the same time.

The Tank is cut modestly through the neck and armhole, with fitting instructions for seam adjustments.

The Shorts are plain and comfy, with an elastic waist casing.
