said... Sarah, your profile seems a lot like mine. Since we are tall, is just adding length at the hem of the garment enough with the Petite Plus Patterns,, or do you add another place or places in the body of the garment? I'm also looking for a comfortable sweater set. 10/8/02 10:26 PM
said... Ann I found that just adding to the length of the sweater top worked for me. The patterns give you a back waist length, so I compared the measurement given with mine and just added the difference. I did find that the sleeve needed quite a bit extra - a good 3" for me. 10/8/02 10:53 PM
