Free sewing pattern and step-by-step tutorial for a simple, fitted turtleneck top that works for everyday fashion, layering, and costume-making.
The PDF pattern includes seam allowance (S/A), so you can cut the fabric directly without adding margins, making it ideal for beginners.
Recommended fabrics include knit materials and two-way stretch fabrics for comfort, flexibility, and a flattering silhouette. These fabrics allow the top to move with your body while maintaining shape.
The default body length is slightly shorter than standard turtlenecks. If you prefer a longer style, adjust the paper pattern before cutting to achieve your desired fit.
After printing, align the joining lines, tape the sheets together, and cut out the pattern pieces to begin sewing immediately.
This versatile turtleneck can be worn casually with jeans, layered under dresses or jackets for added warmth, or used as a base for cosplay and stage costumes. It is also a great beginner-friendly sewing project for anyone looking to try knitwear construction.
Whether you are searching for a free turtleneck sewing pattern, a knit top PDF tutorial, or an easy stretch fabric sewing project, this guide will help you create a stylish, comfortable garment.
The production process is explained with translation software.
