Stitching a kurutha neck TUTORIAL



Stitching a kurutha neck
This can be a very useful technique
I used to do front and back separately for my other tops
But if the neck is open at front or back this is the best
First you need to cut a strip of cloth like this. DONT TAKE A STRAIGHT PIECE. cut diagonally

If u have two strips join them like this
put two strips together
 
stitch as shown
cut off the excess


should make a straight line when opened

Open and iron
Now this is the neck we r trying to do

Now the strip should be longer than the neck

To start take the edge leave half cm n align with the edge fold this half cm down u should b working on the right side of fabric 


pin down stitch all around till u come to the end cut until half n inch remains at end fold this under n stich
The ends should look like this
Make little nips all along the inside be careful not to cut the thread

Fold this twice under im sorry its a bad pic oops as shown and stitch along the line of folding

The neck is done now it should be like this
