The front kangaroo pocket and flap add interest and style to this easy fit pattern. Fashionable cord locks at the hem gives this hooded top a practical yet luxe feel. The front tab continues up into the generous hood to create a cosy look. We have shown this top with our Joni pant making this a chic hoodie / jogger combo.

I love this pattern, but made a few changes. I reduced the width of the packet flap. It just seemed too wide for my taste. Secondly I eliminated the cuffs and narrowed the wrist end of the sleeve. This works well for me.

I made this over the summer; I couldn’t get over the whole idea of a two-piece sleeve on a sweatshirt! The only tough part of the sewing was finding size 110/18 ballpoint needles – that was the trick needed to sew the pocket/flap/top/bottom together. The truly hard part was, I had to hang loose for a few months before wearing it, until the temperature dropped a bit here in the northern US.
So this morning I’m walking my dog, wearing this sweatshirt and jeans (Georgies, which I love as well), and people I run into are telling me I look sharp. In jeans and a sweatshirt.
That does it. I’m going to make a couple more, and relegate my old hoodies to the pulling weeds clothes.

very easy to follow instructions and came together really nicely, especially love the placket/front, looks great. it is quite loose and big, and I put a loose band on the bottom to ‘pull it together’ a bit and finish it off. but that’s to suit me. I didn’t do the cord around the bottom or hood. I will definitely make another.

I like pdf patterns. I’m in the middle of making this and so far so good. Stylearc provides great service. When I was laying out the pattern, I had a question about the grain line. So I posted both on instagram and directly to their website’s customer service. Both responded quickly and thoroughly. Looking forward to wearing the finished product.

How Do I Know What Size I Am?
Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.
When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:
A. Shoulder Breadth
Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.
B. Upper Arm Girth
This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.
C. Bust
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.
D. Waist
This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.
E. Hip
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
