Ever tried gathering fabric and wondered why it sometimes works… and sometimes it's a real struggle?
In this episode, Johanna and Malena dig into gatherings, and not the social kind. They share their favourite methods, how to distribute gathers evenly without guesswork, and what to adjust when things start going wrong.
Plus, how fabric type affects the final result, because gathering a crisp cotton is not the same as gathering a drapey knit (and definitely not the same as heavy denim).
Then Johanna goes deep into the intricacies of sewing gathers on knits, because that is the only thing she can think about right now, with the pattern launch looming and all that!
