Pattern Description: Very Easy Vogue Knit Top

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?
The instructions weren't as easy as I thought they would be.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
The top is comfortable , but the hem in the front is doubled and I am going to do it again since it looks too bulky.
Fabric Used:
A stretch knit
I sewed a size smaller than my measurements indicated and it fits well.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?I wouldn't recommend it to a beginner. This pattern might discourage them from ever trying to sew anything again! I traced it on Swedish Trqcing Paper (which I love) so I will try it one more time in a soft ponte just so I don't feel like I wasted the STP.

Conclusion: This first attempt is a comfortable wearable muslin. I'll try it one more time, but I don't think this "very easy" pattern was correctly labeled due to some difficult sewing angles and nebulous directions. Jalie is sooooo much easier.
