Up Next....To Line or Not to Line, That is the Question?

[Alethia]

This is the pattern that I plan on working with next, McAll's 6571:

I believe I'm gonna make view D out of a cream colored ponte roma knit. To line or not to line, that is the question?

Thanks Diva Dee, glad to know that...I'll pay attention to that when I use this pattern!

 I MADE THESE PANTS IN NAVY A LT KNIT I SHOULD HAVE LINE THEM , BUT ALSO THE PATTERN RUNS VERY SMALL IN THE SEAT OF THE PANTS

Alethia. To line or not to line is always your choice and I'm really pleased we've helped:)

 Velosewer and Shirley,I totally agree, it would be another hot mess to not line a pair of cream colored pants, what was I thinking...lol!

It's settled...to line them it is!!

Thanks!!

I would line cream coloured pants. Recently I made 2 ponte dresses and thought about lining them but decided against unless the fabric was a light colour. I was thinking of using a fine knit or an organza.

All the best.

I really like the look and feeling of lined apparrel.  With a cream knit you might want to line it to eliminate any imprefections or see through effect in the pants.  It would probably have to be a soft free flowing lining to flow with the knit fabric. Definately a personal choice.  Good luck.  I don't think I would line the knit top
