Description
This is a PDF sewing pattern and tutorial to teach you how to create these garments. YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE ANYTHING IN THE MAIL.
The Homecoming Hoodie is a super comfortable and classic look for everyday and your favorite spirit wear. This semi-fitted hoodie is perfect for any time of year too. You can choose from short sleeve for warmer weather and long for cool months. The short sleeves make a great athletic top, nightgown, or swim cover up. Need something warmer? Try the long sleeves with a funnel collar or hood for extra coziness. The kanga pocket is another cute detail you can add to any length excluding the crop length. The body skimmed fit allows for an array of fabric choice… if you choose a thinner, stretchy knit you will have a more relaxed fit and feel. If you opt for a thicker, more stable fabric for warmth or structure you will have a slimmer fit. Throw on your tennis and you have a comfortable, but adorable outfit for the day.
Pattern options for the Homecoming Hoodie includes:
- Necklines: Crew Neckline / Funnel Collar / Hood
- Hem Lengths: Crop / Hip / Mini / Curved Mini / Knee
- Sleeves: Short / Long
- Optional Kanga Pocket (excluding crop length)
- All Versions Feature a Drop-Shoulder Dolman Sleeve
The Homecoming Hoodie pattern is drafted for stable stretch knits with some stretch. For a comfortable fit fabric should have around 30% or more horizontal stretch. The funnel collar does best with thicker, stable fabric so the funnel stands up.
Specific Fabric Suggestions: french terry, double knits, sweatshirt knit, athletic knit, stretch terry knits, brushed rib knits, waffle knits, sweater knits, thermal, micro fleece, etc.
