The fabric is Style Maker Fabrics' Brushed Cotton Twill in Eggplant with this drawstring and zippers from stash. This pattern has great instructions and the garment has amazing details. I enjoyed each detail.
One of the changes, Yuki made was to add the finished hip garment dimensions. I picked the wrong size and my Arare was tight in the hips. I added slits to the side seams to help with the fit. This Arare went to a daughter, it fits her better.
I went with the Kangaroo pocket and I love the zipper on the pocket, keeps the cell phone and keys safe.
The instructions for this zipper and kangaroo pocket are so good, as all the instructions.
The pattern does have welt pockets options but the Kangaroo pocket was my choice, mainly for the zipper and keeping all things tucked into the big pocket.
Every pattern piece went together perfectly and I was so impressed with this pattern and it was the tester call! My changes.... I would size up and make it bigger.
Several notions are needed for this pattern.... zippers, drawstring, cord stops, velcro or snaps.
The zipper at the neckline has a covered zipper stop and looks great zipped all the way up
I am going to make this again, after all, I need one for me! I am going to look for a stretch twill type of fabric, with the athletic feel of this garment some stretch will be nice.
This pullover has all these details and you would think it would take a bit to sew but it did not. You will love making this pullover and it will be perfect for fall.
Hi Lori, this was an excellent review and I'm completely sold. I went stright to the Waffle Patterns site and have purchased the pattern. I do have a question though? I like the welt pockets as always look for somewhere to put my hands but the kangaroo pocket would be useful for phone and keys etc. Could I make the kangaroo pocket slightly narrower and have the welt pockets as well do you think?
ReplyDeleteI am wondering about adding another layer to the kangaroo pocket and then have the sides open for your hands. That is what I was planning to do on my next one. Or do like a sweatshirt kangaroo pocket, then put a small zipper pocket on top. Hope that helps, have fun making your pullover

My name is Michael DeBruin and I am from the USA, it's been a while since my lover's attitude changed from being the caring type she has been to me, but later turned out not to be caring at all. But not long, I later discovered that my lover was having an affair with someone else. and also she told me she doesn't need me after all we pass through then a friend told me about a spell caster. that with the spell I will get back my woman, I took his cell number then called him and also what's-app him which he reply to me and I did some sacrifices to the spell man and he bought the items for me which he used for the sacrifices and later called me that before 48 hours my love will come back to me and now we are more in love with each other than ever. you can reach him on WhatsApp +2347012841542 or reach him via mail ; emutemple@gmail.com , my lover returned back and broke up with the other guy she was having a relationship with...
