My first make after 20 years of not sewing and it was so easy and has turned out beautiful. I used double ponte Roma Which is very stable but still gives for comfort. I didn’t like the hood too much so next time I will leave that off. I’ve faced the hood and added two buttons to the front. I also cut the front slightly wider so it would hang loose. It’s perfect

It comes together beautifully. I did a lot of stitching, as in top stitching and stitching in the ditch(US expression for stitching on seam line after the seam has been stitched) but this was more to address the issue of my fabric choice rather than anything else. The pattern saved me because my fabric choice was a dead stock sweater knit with a loose weave which in hind sight, I should have whipped stitched by hand rather than use a machine zigzag. However, the pattern saved me because it has relatively few pieces, they go together easily, so I only had to battle the knitted loops of the fabric, not the pattern. The top stitching and ditch stitching gave this hoodie a wonderful, professional look.
As soon as I was ready to attach band, outside hood and inside hood, I stopped and thought because sometimes I have to think about my pieces and how they would have to assemble rather than at the picture and description. At that point, going from two to three dimensions, it was easy to see that I would need to make a ‘sandwich’ of the three pieces, turn the facing hood to the inside and rotate to shoulder seam. I don’t mean to make this sound difficult because it is not. It’s just I need to think with my head and hands sometimes rather than what I read or see.
My recommendation is that this is a great, easy pattern that assembles well. It can be made in a fairly heavy knit, but next time, I’m not going to wrestle with my knit and I shall opt for a more stable knit fabric.
