Suggested fabrics: The main sweater can be sewn up in stretch or nonstretch fabric. The bindings require at least 20% stretch. You can use the same fabric for both or use a contrasting fabric for the bindings. Suggested fabrics include medium weight fabrics such as sweater knit, french terry, sweatshirting, polar fleece, rib knit and boucle.

Fabric requirements: The fabric requirements assume you are using the same fabric for the main sweater and bindings. If using a contrasting binding, source 1/2 yd and subtract it from the total. Extra fabric may be needed to match stripes, plaids or directional prints.
