Description

The Granite Sweatshirt is a perfect beginner project.

Every wardrobe needs a cool cozy sweater, and this sweater is perfect for every mood and body shape.

The shape is slightly boxy and comfortable to wear, the elongated shoulder line falls on the arm and softens the boxiness slightly. The spectacular added detail to the bell shape sleeves, makes this sweatshirt stand out from the normal sweaters you can buy on the high street.

We have all fallen in love with it! Either worn with a longer top underneath, leggings and trainers for a sporty look or with a pair of high-rise trousers such as the Makaio Trousers and a white shirt underneath for a more office everyday look. This sweater is incredibly versatile.

The pattern sizes up quite short. I have added 6cm to the length of mine as I’m a little too old to be baring my midriff!! And id recommend adding to the length of the sleeve by about the same.

Us the measurement chart in the photos on the pattern as a guide.

Sewing Instructions
Equipment
Each box contains the correct amount of fabric needed to sew yourself this gorgeous sweater.

Rustic Blue

Tree Green

The fabric is a Rustic heavy weight brushed back cozy sweatshirt in a choice of 2 colours. Rustic Blue stripe, which is a denim blue and the Tree Green stripe.

You will also receive a length of cream cuffing for the neck binding and the sleeve Cuffs.

Sewing with sweatshirt is fabulous for beginners, the knit doesn’t roll at the edges like jersey and feeds perfectly under the machine with no slipping.

A standard sewing machine using a stretch stitch or a zigzag works perfectly, alternatively if you have an overlock use that.

We recommend using ballpoint pins, to not damage the knitted structure
