WENDY’S LITTLE DRESSMAKERS
Here’s the jumper to go with the new skirt you made last week. You will need about one and three-quarters to two yards of pretty coloured cotton. crepe, or some similar soft material. Measure yourself from shoulders to hips, and across yourself from side to side, allowing about six inches extra in the width. Then take a piece of stuff to correspond to the measurements, fold lengthways and widthways, and ’it as shown in Diagram A. The straight folded pieces that are added for sleeves should be about ten inches wide, and long enough to reach to the wrists where they are gathered into little straight cuffs. Join on the sleeves and sew up the side seams of both jumper and sleeves. Gather the sleeve edges and stitch them into the cuffs, which will fasten with press-studs. Now we are r fey for the trimming touches which make the jumper’ distinctive. Bind the neck edge with contrasting coloured blazer braid—you can get this in all bright shades
