Quick Fit Fixes with Kim McBrien Evans
About Quick Fit Fixes with Kim McBrien Evans
Shoulder seams that fall off the shoulders. Sweaters fit in the chest but don't fit anywhere else. Sweaters that stretch across the bum or the belly but seem loose everywhere else. Sleeves that are tight and twist when we move. There are many sweater fit issues that have simple solutions you can implement right now. Have your WORST fitting sweaters with you for class, and we'll look at solutions you can use in your next sweater!

• Wear a light layer such as a t-shirt in case we need to take some measurements
