So I had one last sewing effort for the end of summer, a cozy linden sweatshirt from grainline studio patterns. I got some pretty, soft nani iro fabric (I'm not sure what to call it... almost a flannel, but somehow different) that is a woven for the front and back panels, and a soft sweatshirt material for the sleeves and bands (and an added side-panel because when I guessed I didn't purchase enough of the woven). I went down to a size 4 from a previous version that I had made from some jersey, and is nice but loose. This is mostly the "b" view (but with added bands at the sleeves and waist), so it is sort of a hybrid version. Anyhow, I plan to spend all of fall in this. I still need some help making a nice neckline, I always manage to do the weirdest part up front, no mater how I plan it, so this one is a bit extra stretched right at the front and I mistakenly put the seam up there too, but it is not too noticeable and this is already my second try on the neckband so I left it.
