Best way to take in sleeveless tops

socks
10 years ago

I lost some weight and have some summer tops I would like to wear.
What is the best way to take in sleeveless tank tops in which the armholes are too big? From the shoulder seams, or the side seams?

I also have some knit tops with collars, and I guess those can only be taken in on the sides.

Thanks for any tips.
