- The knitted "pearl gum" pattern with knitting needles (diagram and photo confirming this) forms a corrugated canvas. Therefore, the product made by him will add you a few centimeters in volume. Consider this fact when doing work.
- The clothes connected by such a pattern cannot be hung up after washing, as the fabric can stretch out. Dry the product should be laid out on a horizontal surface.
