Neighbourhood HoodieReviewed by Wendy Woog (✓ Verified Buyer) on 06/03/2020I have made a lot of your patterns. I made this up without a Muslin In a small (whoops - my fault) And it was much too small. Next time I will make a muslin but for some reason I think I need to make a medium or even large. I will try again !!Was this helpful?I want to sew more of these!Reviewed by Cheryl (✓ Verified Buyer) on 12/17/2019This pattern was fantastic and I had no trouble at all. I made the hoodless version all in one color using Birch organic fleece and I am beyond pleased! It's super cozy and looks great. I love the details of the pieced sleeves and the subtle high-low hem. I'm 5'2" and 33-27-37 and I'm happy with the Small for my cozy lounge wear. I prefer less ease for out & about, so my next one will be XS in a slightly fancier fabric.3 of 3 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?One is not enoughReviewed by Sherri Staton (✓ Verified Buyer) on 01/05/2019Made the hoodie version recently in 100% organic cotton sweatshirt fleece. My measurements are approx 36-30-40 (narrow shoulders, flat belly, big butt). I'm also 5'6" with pretty average torso/length lengths. Based on finished garment measurements I made a straight medium. Fit is a bit looser than shown on model so I might size down in the future, especially if using a fabric with more horizontal stretch. Pattern pieces go together beautifully and instructions are great, like you'd expect from this company. I love that the bottom band is same width as bottom of jacket, no snug band catching on my bum, hooray. The zipper instructions didn't work great for me, not sure if it's my (lack of) skills, my zipper foot,or what, but I got a better outcome using another method. I also swapped the sleeve cuffs for thumbhole cuffs from another pattern in my stash. Mine's in white for dog walking in the dark, but I've been grabbing for it daily since finishing so I'd best get on with another one in a darker color. Thanks for the great pattern, will be making multiples!2 of 2 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?Rocking the NeighborhoodReviewed by SusanC (✓ Verified Buyer) on 01/02/2019I got the whole thing together with no "do-overs", fabulous directions. I added some length for camouflage and it worked out just as I hoped. I plan to do another in a heavier sweatshirt material now that I can see the fit. All my neighbors are jealous.Was this helpful?Easy to make, easy to wear.Reviewed by Kathyrn Brown on 11/28/2018I love this pattern. It was fun to sew and even more fun to wear. I dressed it up with a grey light weight sweater knit in the view B, pullover version. I added some decorative stitching on the sleeve and shoulder in a gold rayon thread. The directions were easy to follow. It stitched up quickly with the hem and sleeve bands. The fit is nice with the back sloping cut giving extra coverage in the rear and the raglan sleeves. I am looking forward to making the zip up hoodie version.2 of 3 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful? -
Errata
In the first printing of the printed version of this pattern, the Notions section on the back envelope was missing one item. In addition to the other items mentioned, View A requires lightweight or featherweight fusible interfacing. This error has been fixed in the digital version of the pattern available now.Determining Which Printing You Have
As errata are discovered, they are marked for correction in subsequent printings of the pattern. To determine which printing of an instruction sheet or pattern sheet you have, look at the copyright box which appears on each. Toward the bottom of the box, there is a series of numbers.
The lowest number you see there indicates which printing you have. For example, if the lowest number in the box on the instruction sheet is "2," you have an instruction sheet from the second printing. Any errors in the instructions mentioned for the first printing have been corrected in your version. If the lowest number in the box on the pattern sheet is "1," you have a copy of the pattern sheet from the first printing.
Pattern sheets and instructions sheets can be printed separately, so be sure to check the errata notices for pattern pieces against the printing number on the pattern sheet and errata notices for instructions against the printing number on the instruction sheet.
