The pattern for the soft cups is included in the pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I sew something else from this kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nBasically yes – the included materials are versatile. For example, from the swim fabric (1 m), you can also sew a bikini top or bikini bottoms. The powernet is suitable for bra cups or shapewear, and the swimwear lining for gussets in other swimwear models. However, the set is specifically designed for the Brigitte swimsuit – the quantity and cut of the materials are tailored to this pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does the set include powernet?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPowernet provides additional support and stability in the swimsuit – especially suitable for medium and large sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy special swimwear elastic?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSwimwear elastic is suitable for chlorine and saltwater and remains significantly more durable and elastic than regular lingerie elastic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy swimwear lining?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSwimwear lining ensures opacity, improves comfort, and increases the durability of the swimsuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy swim fabric with UPF 50+ UV protection?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nUPF 50+ means the fabric blocks 98% of UV radiation (UVA \u0026amp; UVB) – significantly more than a normal white T-shirt (about UPF 5). Especially when swimming, surfing, or spending extended time by the water, protection through clothing is particularly important, as wet fabric without UV protection hardly protects anymore. A swimsuit made from UPF 50+ fabric offers reliable sun protection – without needing to apply sunscreen to the covered skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich stitch types are suitable for swim fabrics?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe sewing instructions include a special overview of stitch types and sewing machine settings specifically for swim and sports fabrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich sewing needle for swim fabrics?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nUse a stretch needle size 75.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need an overlock machine?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAn overlock is nice to have but not essential. All seams can also be sewn with a stretch stitch or zigzag stitch.
