Paper patterns are a pain. I haven't used one since Home Ec. in High School, Many,Many,Many Moons ago. So I know some of you do sew clothes.
When you are using a paper pattern and the measurments are for knit,flannel you know stretchy material. I do know that it is a smaller pattern piece than with cotton. so it says on back of pattern pack. Now if I am making a size 2 little boys shirt and the sizing is for knits etc. do I use the size 3 to make up the difference. Am I making any sense? Cause that is my problem. I want to make my GRT.GRndSon some PJs with the Cars His Mom ask me to and He is a size 2. But my Pattern says shirt sizing is for the stretchies and the Cars are Cotton. The cars are those movie cartoon ones. So am I clear as mud? Does anyone know what I am talking about. HELP!!!!
