I love love a raglan sweatshirt, so comfy and elevated look with the color blocking, looking forward to make mine.
I made the solid colour sweatshirt it took me 2 hours to make and when I put it on my family thought I'd bought it from a shop. The longest part of the make was tracing off the pattern, but now I've got it I'm going to be making more. If you match the notches the band and cuffs are easy to attach.
Hi Angela, thanks so much for your review. We love hearing that your Drew came together so quickly - it looks absolute gorgeous! Love that your family thought it was shop-bought! Hope you enjoy sewing up your second. Happy sewing! Abi x
Brilliant easy to make and easy to follow instructions.
Hi Simonne, thanks so much for your review! We’re delighted to hear you found the Drew sweatshirt easy to make with clear instructions. Happy sewing! Abi x
This is a great pattern, good instructions to follow.
Thank you so much for your review! We’re really glad you enjoyed sewing the Drew sweatshirt and found the instructions easy to follow. Happy sewing! Abi x
I made a size 2, the cropped version. I preferred sewing it on the machine and then an overlocker. Love how it turned out.
I want the ribbed hem longer so I made it 2 inches longer.
Defo recommend than you make this.
Hi Philippa, thanks so much for your review and for sharing your gorgeous pictures - your cropped Drew looks fab. So glad you enjoyed making it and love how it turned out. Happy sewing! Abi x
