You change the fit of the shirt when you do this. If it's too big, you'll probably be okay, but if it fits well before alteration, it might be too tight afterward. Pin the alteration and then try the shirt on to make sure it looks and feels okay before you sew the new seam.
I was thinking that - it might be tighter under the arms if it wasn't baggy to start with. I might try it on an oversized top that has too large a neckline first.
I am so grateful for this tutorial! I've lost a lot of weight and my favorite shirts now flash things I'd rather keep covered or fall off my shoulders. With this tutorial I can keep my favorite tops and be happy. Thank you so much. ♥♥
I’ve been doing this for years. I do more detailing but basically the same. I have small shoulders and have to do this to almost every top or nightgown I buy. Works great!
@@almaslakhani6693 to bad clothes makers cannot cut them right. Almost everyone I know has to alter the neckline. I am short so I have to hem everything also, sleeves and trousers. So glad we are in the same boat. Lol ❤️♥️
I have 2 shirts that I wasn’t wearing much because I didn’t like the wide collar. Such a simple fix, but I didn’t think of it! Wearing both shirts much more now! Thanks so much!
OMGosh, I just stumbled on your video. This is a great solution! I have several boatneck tops that I really love, but the necklines are way too big. I’m definitely gonna try this tip, but will try on the top before making any cuts! Thanks! 😊
Good for oversized shirt. Just realize it will draw the armholes up and in. Don’t try this on a shirt that fits well everywhere except in the neck. It may make it fit uncomfortably overall.
@deborahmarin2421 buy a tape measure with inches on one side and centameter on the other side, 3cm is approximately 1 1/4 inches. Then follow directions given in the other reply.. be sure the dart is taken in on the wrong side of sweater.
Good grief. Who knew the fix could be so easy? I have to watch again to see how to determine how far down to stitch though. With just music and no voiceover, I missed it. EDIT: I watched again. Looks like it's 3 cm down from shoulder seam, no matter what.
Не получится. Не совпадут горловина спинки и горловина переда. Даже в ролике это видно: когда она прочерчивает линию в 3 см. по линейке, видно, насколько перед со спинкой не состыковываются.
Oh heck no! That is going to change your shoulder depth as well as your neckline. If you have bigger shoulders, you won't be able to fit into that garment. Bad idea!

No

Fantastic! You make it look so easy! I’ve often wondered how to make a neckline smaller, and now I know.

Great tutorial ..I see no reason why people should have to talk… I just do what they are doing.. thanks❤
Most of my ready bought blouses have that problem as my top body is smaller than the bottom part. Thank you for the tutorial, it is a real saver!❤👏👏👏
I agree with you

Why do they make the neckline so big? My bra straps always show.
Mine too! It drives me crazy.
I upsize cause i like looser fit. Necklines become proportionately larger for no reason.
Brilliant, now I know what to do, so pleased :-)
This will come in handy-thank you!
Great tutorial, thank you for sharing.😊
Exactly 👍
Great tutorial. Thanks for sharing
Grazie molte!!! È un modo semplice e utilissimo x riparare le maglie. brava! 😊😊
Great I am going to do that to several of my tops x
Отличная у вас машинка👍👍👍
すばらしいテクニック！😂全く思いつかなかったです。カシミアのセーターでもできますか？やってみようかな。あぁ今日は良い１日だ！🎉
how do you determine the 3cm?
Would this make the garment significantly shorter?
3 см. с каждой стороны переда и спинки -это 12 см. Как в результате горловина уменьшилась на 17 см?
Тоже не поняла...
Que maravilha😊
Vai me ajudar muito essas dicas!
Obrigada ❤

Thank you.The video is interesting
thank you
Такая ерунда - вещь сидеть не будет после этого, да и длина меняется
Excelente 👌 👌 👌 👌
Вначале горловина лучше смотрелась, чем после переделки.
Тоже заметила.было стильно
FカップとGカップって海外でも人気ですか？
Very simple: just pull an elastic thread through the waistband.
Bravissima!, 👏👏

What if no sewing machine ?
Brava mi hai dato un bel consiglio
Здравствуйте, как нпзываетсч ааша машинка?
Do you have instructions as to how to use the cm’.
I’m lost
@deborahmarlin2421
I rewatched to understand it. Mark 3 cm down from shoulder seam right at the binding. Chalk across to the shoulder seam.

Автор одно и то же повторяет, но только с разными кофточками😂. Наверное все видео у Вас такие.

It's worth a try unless there is another way. I'll look at any method to get some help.
@@Dindasayswhynot I shorten necklines all the time. All you need to do is gather the neckline at the back.
@@JenniferKokoski gather how, and at what location. Do you use a long stitch, or elastic, or some other way to gsther???
Personally I prefer the original neckline
Que buen truco
Я люблю широкую горловину и не стала бы уменьшать.
Merci ! ;-)))
Wuaoo gracias me encantó

А побыстрее нельзя шевелиться?
Ok ma poi e stretta sotto le ascelle che farò
