Pattern Description: Knit top with raglan sleeves (baseball-style shirt). Please note that this is an out-of-print pattern, copyright, 2000.
Pattern Sizing: Med-Lg
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes, it looks just like the pattern illustration.
Were the instructions easy to follow? Yes, the instructions were easy to follow.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I like the versatility of this pattern
Fabric Used: lycra knit...not sure if it's actually nylon or not.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I made one alteration to fit by back.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I've made this top several time is the past: 2004 & 2010.
Conclusion: I was looking forward to the "Sew Your Stash" contest in January, 2013, but that contest wasn't offered this year, so I'm using this "One View" contest...to sew using my over-whelming stash. This pattern is very adaptable. It's too bad that it's out-of-print

I like the fabric combination you chose. It looks like a fun top to wear. Keep this pattern.

This is exactly why I love raglan sleeves. So much fun to vary with the fabrics. Good luck in the contest!
