Today I trialled the knit top from New Look 6977 to put Sergio through his paces. The whole thing took 1 1/2 hours - I think it would've taken less than an hour if I was more used to the rethreading.
I sewed half on the 4-thread safety, then the hem and sleeves on coverstitch:
...then back to the 4-thread safety for the sides and neckband. So three threadings altogether. I had a few issues with thread breakage but realised it was because I had a missed a bit of the threading.
Here it is on:
Verdict:
New Look 6977: yay!
Sergio: double yay!
