Pattern Description: A drape sweater with long tails in front

Pattern Sizing: Small/Medium/Large/Extra Large/Extra Extra large

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? No

Were the instructions easy to follow? Yes

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? Armholes too small and the placement wrong - too far back

Fabric Used: sweater knit

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: Tried to fix by comparison to other armholes - neckline then became a problem

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? No

Conclusion: one hour patterns not worth the pain - this become a wadder and I am glad that the fabric cost less than the pattern

Buy this pattern for $12.19  List Price: $16.25   Add to Bag Add to Bag
