Description
The Jersey Twist Pattern Puzzle has to be one of the most popular posts on my website. It started life as a ‘Pattern Puzzle’ on Saturday mornings on Facebook. Then became both a detailed worksheet available on-line and a popular afternoon workshop in my studio. Now finally it is a PDF Sewing Pattern available to everyone worldwide.
This sewing pattern is based on my knit block and is a close fit with negative ease. The twist top design depends on a close fit to make the drape of the twist work well. The fabric needed for this sewing pattern is a two-way (four-way US) stretch jersey with a reasonable (4-8%) elastane content.

Single Twist
There are two different ways to approach cutting the Single Jersey Twist Top.
- The first is to use a double knit fabric that looks the same on both sides. When you cut a single layer and twist the front piece once only the fabric on both sides of the front should look the same.
- The second method is to Cut 1 Pair of the front pattern piece with fabric at right sides together. Then you’ll stitch both sides of the neckline and turn both pieces of fabric right sides out. This is the method you need if your knit fabric is not the same on the front and back sides.
Double Twist
There is only one way to work with the Double Jersey Twist Top. Because the front is twisted twice you will always end up with the right side of the fabric facing the right way on the outside of the garment.
This PDF pattren comes with a full length sleeve so you can alter it to be either three-quarter length or short sleeve.
When you’re ready to cut your pattern you’ll see that in most cases you’re after a single layer cut. So pay attention to he notes that go with each of the lay-plans in the notes included with the sewing pattern. Dark shading indicates the wrong side of the fabric and the light shading on some pattern pieces indicates a pattern piece that has been flipped to cut 1 pair.
