Cowl top |
This is the last of the three tops I made for myself this past winter. I had three yards of this nubby knit fabric in my stash. I bought it back in January of 2002 so it was twenty years old, time to be used.
Pattern used |
I had bought this pattern back in 2018 because I liked it. When I was making up my list of items to sew I paired this four year old pattern with the twenty year old fabric and had a fun, warm top for winter. The fabric is a bit heavier than the fabric on the pattern picture so the top flares more. Because the sleeves are fitted, I am not able to wear a long sleeved top under it. I did wear it with a tank top though that I tucked in so my torso wouldn't get chilled.
Fabric detail |
The pattern and fabric were easy to work with though the fabric did leave little nubs when cutting. Not as bad to clean up as the fleece top though. I think I may try this again out of a lighter weight knit next time.
