Zipper hint
from Daisyknits.com
“The best way that I have found to put a zipper into a garment is
to glue the zipper into place using a good fabric glue. Let it dry
completely. Then sew the zipper in place. No pins are needed once
the glue is dry and every thing moves through the sewing machine
smoothly and at the same time. Do make sure that before you glue
the zipper in place you have treated the knitted fabric so that it
will not shrink when washed or cleaned.”
