Tutorial: How To Add Neckband To Sai Pyjamas

Note: You will need our Sai Onesie PJs pattern for this.

Let’s follow these steps!

Method 1: Placket First, Neckband later


To follow this method you will need to create the placket first. Go to this link to learn how.

Next, we will need to close the short edges of the neckband.

Step 1: Take your neckband and fold it in half RS together and sew the short edges on each end. 

Grade seams and turn it RS out. Press.

Step 2: Follow step 1- 3 of the pattern tutorial to sew the front and back pieces together at the shoulder. Take your front piece and finish the left placket with the lock machine or zigzag stitch. This will be the overlapping side. Fold the finished edge 1/2” (1.25 cm)  towards the WS. Press. Next, fold the right placket two times 1/2” (1.25 cm) towards the WS. Press as well.

In the end you will have something like this! One side fold only once and the opposite side fold twice.
