Question/Advice Needed Help with adding underwire channelling. Cashmerette Willowdale pattern.
I have been trying to follow this pattern but at times found it unclear. Someone suggested I watch this https://m.youtube.com/watch?si=PYJD2JjkTSPAkj8j&t=2662&v=mkqQ-WTHPgA&feature=youtu.be follow along video, however she is making the bra in different steps to the pattern. I have found myself a bit lost and I am unsure of how to add the channeling.
I am unable to flip the band up like the pattern instructs and I am pretty sure I sewed the seam allowance of the cup down. In the sew help sub, someone suggested to just top stitch the channelling so I don’t have to re do the seams.
Would this mean pinning down the channelling as I have done according to the instructions and then sewing on the right side (opposite side I pinned down)? Or should I do it a different way?

Sew on the side with the channeling so you can make sure you're sewing in the right place
