New Simplicity 1251- fun fair wear/fantasy hoodie

[gypsylakat]

Hey everyone, wanted to post that I found a new pattern recently released that is in the "mundane" section that would be fabulous for a fair pullover or jacket if you added a front opening. Thought I'd throw it up here since it was outside of the costumes/historical stuff and didn't want anyone to miss it


I made view C last night in christmas fabric to go with my fiance's buddy the elf costume- I'm house sitting so I made it without pins and it still came out looking great (I had my new-to-me sewing machine with me) It was super easy, probably 2 hours from start to finish. Size up if you're using anything that isn't super stretchy and add lots of length if you have a chest, I thought I had added enough length to compensate for my chest and stomach but it's a bit short. I'm adding a skater skirt though so I'm not too worried about that.

That is an adorable pattern!  May need one for mundane wear....

Thanks for posting this, Isabella. My oldest granddaughter may like something like this for Christmas. She's into hoodies.
