I needed some extra under layers to take with us to New Zealand so decided to whip up some merino wool turtleneck tops. In this tutorial you'll find steps of how to create your own as well as ways to customise it to suit your style and body.
It's a fairly simple DIY sewing project which I'd recommend for intermediate crafters who have a few other creations up their sleeves already.

Make what you can and ethically source the rest!

Suggested Fabric Amount Required (based off midi length):
Size Extra Small = 0.9m (off the roll)
Size Small = 1m (off the roll)
Size Medium = 1.2m (off the roll)
Size Large = 1.4m (off the roll)
Size Extra Large = 1.6m (off the roll)
(add or take 0.2 metres for anything larger or smaller than these sizes)
NOTE: These measurements are based on buying 'off the roll' which is approx 1.4m wide.
