For a comfortable and well-fitting outcome, we recommend choosing a lighter fabric (150-220g/qm or 5-7 oz/sq yard) with ribbing.
In addition, it's important that the fabric possesses a stretch range of 70% to 100% and has excellent recovery characteristics.
The amount of fabric shown is for the sleeves only and must be calculated in addition to the chosen Tierra Tee view from the original pattern.
For the calculations provided in the fabric requirement table, we have used the standard European fabric width, which is typically 140 cm (55 inches).
Please note that different fabrics can shrink differently after washing, so we recommend adding extra fabric to account for this shrinkage. It's advisable to purchase additional fabric to ensure you have enough for your project.
