Pattern Description: Very loose fitting jackets have stitched or serged seam and hem options. Included are Nancy Zieman's time saving tips.

Pattern Sizing: XS-XXL

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes it did.

Were the instructions easy to follow? The instructions are very easy to follow and broken down into chunks of time you might have available to sew.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I like how quickly it goes together and how versatile it it. I don't dislike anything, although I did make a size smaller than suggested and think it worked out just fine.

Fabric Used: Sweater Knit - it is very soft and cozy

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: Absolutely none.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I imagine I will sew this again. I love how easy it is, and it has great variations in hems and ties. I do recommend it to anyone.

Conclusion: There are more pictures on my blog. I like this style of cardigan. It is perfect for a pair of skinny jeans with boots!

This looks nice on you. I was considering that fabric, but was afraid the stripes were too heavy for my petite frame. The stripes are subtle, looks nice.
