   Violet Knit Jacket = FUN!

   I used a sueded scuba which is tap dancing on the very edge of too heavy; but I live in Canada and I love me some warm and cuddly silhouettes and fabrics. I will for sure be making a few summer versions – perfect for over a lovely sunny summer dress inside an air conditioned office. SO many options with this pattern!

   I really love the shape of this jacket and the design lines. Very well drafted. I chose a french terry with too much stretch, and my seams are wavy, but I will definitely make it again with a more stable knit. It’s a cool silhouette, nice variation on a straight cardigan, and is long enough to cover my butt to wear with leggings. It’s also pretty simple to sew as long as you mark your A-B-C-D points and pay attention.

   Inspired by the dreary weather, I tried out the @stylearc #VioletKnitJacket pattern.  I used a cozy french terry from #califabrics, which is soft and green but too stretchy, and my serger's diff feed just would not give me seams that weren't wavy. However, I love the silhouette and the design lines and it's a different take on a cardigan, so I'll be sewing another one with a more stable knit (although I'm wearing this one today, wavy seams be damned!) #stylearc #sewing #isew #handmadewardrobe  #stitchininmykitchen #sewistsofinstagram

How Do I Know What Size I Am?

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

1. When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
2. Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
3. When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
4. You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:

A. Shoulder Breadth

Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.

B. Upper Arm Girth

This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.

C. Bust

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.

D. Waist

This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.

E. Hip

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
