Not So Hot Sweater - Part 2
Topic: August, 2008

I checked the pattern, the layout calls for the stretch to go down the sleeve not around.... don't know why it would call for that... doesn't make sense.  Then I double checked the seams, there are 9 panels and 9 seams,  didn't see those in the line drawing.... I think that the line drawing on patterns should represent the garment exactly!  Very disappointing.

 

this is the instructions, you can see the 9 panels which makes up the collar and body of the sweater, then the sleeves/shoulders are sewn into the center.  

I hesitate to do a pattern review of this because I have nothing nice to say, but maybe I'm missing something, and one of those members over there can prove me wrong!
