Using the bundle for the traditional model, I have now come to the stage where the undercollar is attached to the jacket. Your instructions were pretty good, but my result is not up to my standards.
After finishing lesson 31, I noticed some severe issues with the back where the under collar is attached.
When I lift the jacket at the shoulder pads and look at the colloar from behind, I noticed some small vertical folds moving to under the collar fall, as if I had eased frabric in. However, when I flip the fall up to see how the stand is attached, all looks good.
Still holding the jacket in the air and looking from the side, I noticed that the collar at the back drops down as if there was too much fabric at the back. This leads to my thrid point.
When I try the jacket on (apparendlty I have a similar size than you Reeza), the collar looks great. Everything you mentioned in your video how to evaluate the undercollar seems to be ok. However, at at back right under the collar fall I have a big horizonal fold from one shoulder to the other.
So my questions are, have I done something completely wrong, shall I take the collar apart again and try again? Is the fold at the back below the collar fall a result from the pattern specifically designed for you?
I am happy to post a photo if you wish.
Thank you very much for your help.
With best regards
Klaus
Hi Bill,
Reza told me that this is a fitting issue and that I should not worry about that. So I continued to attach the sleeves. I am now curious to see how the fitting of this will be done.
Best
