“The purpose of In the Running was to develop my sewing skills by working with knit fabric as a part of the curriculum in Fashion Production II. Prior to this work, my experience with knitwear was limited, with a lot of room to grow. To construct this look, I used McCall’s M7482 and Simplicity 8560. I followed the pattern closely and put a lot of effort into utilizing quality knitwear construction techniques. Altogether, the outcome is a modern and sleek activewear set suitable for the active lifestyle of a fashion-forward woman. On the subject of excellence, I appreciate the opportunity to learn how to construct knitwear, one of the most popular types of fabric in use today.”
