So fun to sew!

I wish the pattern had sleeve notches to note the front and back part of the sleeve. I had to figure it out myself by comparing the front yoke and back pattern piece and see which had the steeper curve.
Overall very detailed instructions, and glad they have multiple PDF formats for different printing options. I love the final result!

The pattern also did not make note that you need to place the sleeve pattern right side up on the fabric, then right side down to make mirrored sleeve parts since the pattern is not perfectly symmetrical. Beginner sewists would trip up on this.

A fun pattern

I got some deep discount Sherpa at Joann (RIP) and made the hooded jacket and it was a fun and easy to follow pattern. I will say I think it runs a bit large. I made the small (I’m 5’3”, 130lbs) and it is very oversized on me, but it was almost the perfect size for my 6’ slender husband (he has very long arms). I can see myself making several versions of this and it seems like a super hackable pattern. It is nearly identical in style to an old Patagonia fleece pullover I love.

Great Pattern

I'd been eyeing this up for a while, wanting to make a comfy and warm layer. Made it out of merino fleece and it's perfect. The instructions were easy to follow and really clear. Bit disappointed the size range isn't bigger.

Pullover with hood

This is such a great pattern with well considered and detailed instructions (which, if like me, you are a bit of a novice, come in very handy). The finished product looks great and is super cosy. I love the big pockets. The only thing I’d change is giving a bit more space in the hood which is a very snug fit. On the other hand, the hood will easily fit under a rain jacket, which is sensible. All in all, I highly recommend this pattern - give it a go!
