Fabrics / Ribbing
Ballpoint needle
Zipped versions: 1 open-end zipper :
Classic length: 21 11/16 in*(55 cm)
Above-knee: 32 in (80 cm)
Below-knee: 35 in (90 cm) long double-slider zipper
Midi: 43 in (110 cm) long double-slider zipper
*21 11/16 in is the conversion for 55 cm which is the length the original pattern is drafted for. You can take a 22 in long zipper but you will have to lengthen the front and back pieces by 5/16 in. To understand how to do this, refer to step 2 (Preparing the pattern) of the instructions.

RECOMMENDED FABRICS
Garment: jersey for sweatshirt, interlock knit, neoprene, French Terry…
Ribbing: ribbing by the meter or the same fabric used for the garment (this pattern is not designed for using pre-cut ribbing bands).
To help you choose your fabric, here is a list of the fabrics used for our versions:
For the long and short zipped hoodies we’ve used the same Organic jersey fabric in different colourways from Mind the Maker that you can find at Meter Meter.
The white hooded sweatshirt dress was done using a jersey fabric from Ma Petite Mercerie.
