Pattern Description:
This is a pattern for an assymetric knit.
Pattern Sizing:
34-44. Sizing is normal and true to sizing chart.
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
yes, I think so.
Were the instructions easy to follow?
This particular pattern is the one with illustrated instructions in the main part of the magazine.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I like the feminine cut and the shoulder detail.
Fabric Used:
Rayon knit.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
None really. I sewed a 40 at the shoulders and the hips, grading up to a 42 in the waist area.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
I may sew it again, though its fairly distinct and I probably don't need two.
Conclusion:
This is a cute pattern, it flatters the figure and I sewed it up in an afternoon.
