Hi everyone!
Sorry for this late post, but while last weekend I was hoping for some rain to test my Minoru jacket.. This weekend all we had was rain, while I was waiting for some sun to take pictures.. Since that didn't happen I did sew quite a lot, so I've made some progress with my fall sewing plans!
For now this is just a short post about one of my favourite sweaters so far..
A couple of years ago my sister went to Berlin and she got this super cool sweater there. It's one of her favourite sweaters and looks pretty worn by now. So with the Kollabora Closet Copy challenge in mind I decided to replicate it..
It was quite a bit of a puzzle, because the shoulder seams are integrated in the hood seam and the side seams are moved forward a bit, so that it folds nicely. I've sewed it completely on my serger and after I got the pattern right it was a super quick make. Most of the seams are hidden, which makes for a nice clean look. The only thing is that I didn't cut the cuffs the right way, so next time I'll do that differently..
I added a snap closure instead of a loop, which the original sweater has, but I just couldn't really be bothered with a loop and took the easy route.
After looking at the pics of my sweater and my sisters one, I think I need to make her a new one too, maybe for christmas?
Next up will probably be my finished Drape Drape shirt, but as I've also finished two Hot Cocoa Sweaters from Dixie DIY plans might change..
I've been sewing along with the Anna Dress Sewalong, but I already finished mine, so that one will be coming soon too :)
