A sweater is a must-have in every closet. It’s a basic model that’s easy to combine or which can be worn all on its own in this pimped version with a punch needle or cutting plotter print.

Recommended fabrics

Our best fabric advice for making a sweater is, you’ve got it, sweater fabric!

A French terry will work as well, although it will look slightly less ‘fluffy’. Use an elastic fabric that will maintain its shape for the neckline, wrists, and hems. Thin-ribbed fabric or fabric trim are the best options for this.

If you’re going to use 100% cotton, then it is best to wash your fabric first because cotton will shrink!
