FABRIC CHOICE
Paula is designed for stretchy fabrics like cotton or viscose jersey, ponte knit or lightweight linen knits. You fabric should at least have a stretch of 30%. For less stretchy fabrics I’d recommend sizing up one size. Fabrics should always be pre-washed to avoid shrinkage later.
If you like to work with ribbing for the neckband, you should pay attention to good quality and shape retention.
For view B and C a 3 cm wide elastic is required.
