Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes
Were the instructions easy to follow?
Very, as I've found all KS patterns to be.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I liked how quickly the construction went, and the fit is just right. My only dislike is the width of the panties at the crotch. I've made KS 2908 (Panties pattern), and experienced the same problem. They're just a little too wide.
Fabric Used:
Nylon lycra from Hancock Fabrics
Pattern Alterations or any design changes you made:
None, though next time I make this, I will narrow the crotch width. Or possibly just use KS 2908 for the bottom of this suit.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Yes and yes!
Conclusion:
Great pattern, and now I've got a cute new suit just in time for summer!
