Pattern Description: V7997 (out of print) but still available online

Pattern Sizing: I cut the 8

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern once you were done sewing with it? Yes kind of

Were the instructions easy to follow? This is so super easy and super fast to make. The instructions are pretty clear.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?I have had this pattern in my stash for a long time because I love the look.

Fabric Used: I used a sweater knit I had in my stash from a last year.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I made the top into a dress by using my hip curve ruler and adding length to it with a little extra to for the gathers at the side. It was really just that easy. I also cut the back piece in two pieces instead of on the fold so I could adjust for the curve of my lower back.

Would you sew it again? I think I might make it again in another fabric and will play with the off the shoulders collar and maybe exaggerate it a bit.
