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.... ;D
I wonder if I can get away with view A at work......
Thanks for posting this, Isabella. My oldest granddaughter may like something like this for Christmas. She's into hoodies.
