kariginu 2 Sewing Patterns | DRCOS Patterns & How To Make

Comments are made using translation software.

This is the pattern for a NIBU-SHIKI (divided into upper and lower parts) KARIGINU.

Due to its size, it may seem daunting, but it primarily involves straight seams, and the only slightly tricky part is attaching the collar.

The sleeves are not kimono-style but made with a western-style armhole, making attachment relatively straightforward.

The lower front flap is designed to be easily attached to a belt with Velcro.

As it's a NIBU-SHIKI (divided into upper and lower parts), it's easy to wear, with a simplified design that's concealed by the belt.

After printing, paste it according to the pasting line,Cut and use.

The pattern has a seam allowance, so it can be used as is.

* The sleeves of this *kariginu* are designed without stitching around the edges.

If you prefer a bag-style *kimono* sleeve, please modify it to a bagged stitch.

* The armholes are designed to be open at the top. If the fabric lacks stiffness, apply fusible interlining for reinforcement.

* If the fabric used lacks stiffness, adding a lining for a double-layered structure is recommended.

The instructions provided are for single-layer construction.

(1) After serging the "Center of back" on the "Bodice" and sewing it together, press the seam allowance with an iron.

(2) Serge all edges of the "Bodice" except for the neckline.

(3) Sew the sides of the "Bodice" together, then press the seam allowances open with an iron.

(4) Fold the bottom edge of the "Bodice," from one front side to the opposite front side, by 1 cm (or 0.5 in) with an iron, and sew it with a machine.

(5) Attach "Sewing Batting" to the "Collar." Fold and crease it with an iron, then sew both sides after turning it inside out. Shape it for easy insertion.

(6) Cut the neckline notches and align the corners of the "Sewing Batting" with the "Bodice." Sew the "Collar" to the "Bodice," inserting it as you go.

* Attaching the "Collar" can be challenging. Basting it with thread beforehand may make sewing easier.

(7) Attach snaps to the designated snap button positions.
