I would really like to see some men’s patterns…specifically a basic but classic button-up. Any plans to expand into patterns for the “Todd” in our lives? hehe

I made a hopscotch and my daughter wore it to school. She was sad that no one told her it was pretty. I said not everyone can be a winner. Lol.

Right on, @lightningmcstitch! The drape is important for this one. The fabric can be relatively thick as long as it’s not too stiff. @Ginger, I’d suggest going to a fabric store and looking at the coatings section so you can see the type of fabric we’ve recommended for this pattern. That way you’ll know what to look for when you shop your stash!

@justsewit I know the spotlight knits you mean. They are very “stable” which makes them nice to sew and hem, bug I wouldn’t try using them for a neckband. Perhaps a facing, bug not a stretchy neckband.
If you’d consider buying off the internet sight unseen I can strongly recommend the Ottobre ribbings. I’ve bought them from the Ottobre Etsy shop…[Read more] -

How are you attaching the neckband @justsewit ?
Sewing machine or overlocker/coverstitch?
I am like some weird evangelist when it comes to knit fabric, I want the world to share the love! 🙂
Happy to help if there’s any way I can. -

Finally got the bathers top fitted 🙂 It works very well. Worth it but tedious and frustrating!

@Ginger I think you’re exactly right to say “hold it up and see how it falls/drapes”. If it feels like it will be a nice warm layer and it drapes nicely then I think you’ve got your perfect fabric.
