Aberdeen in Polka Dot Sweater Knit


Aberdeen tunic in polka dot sweater knit from Style Makers Fabric

The official first make of 2016, an Aberdeen by Seamwork in a gorgeous 
Style Maker's sweater knit

This pattern goes together very quickly and gives you a great looking top.  I have made this once before in another sweater knit


The neckline got a little stretched out but I think a trip through the washer will fix that.

I think this tunic is the perfect length and I know it will be worn with jeans and leggings.

I needed a quick little project to get me back to the sewing room.    The back has a nice center back seam and this makes it very easy to finish the neckline, too.

I mentioned the rough start to 2016 and I appreciate your kind comments.  I just want to say give your loved ones a hug, life changes quickly.

      Thanks, Levone, I have been spending more time doing family things and social things after we lost a dear family member. It has been very enjoyable and sewing will always be there.
