Pattern review: B*trendy #9; 1759 tunic

 

In the last minute I decided to make a cardigan. I really like it although it doesn't look anything like the original anymore. The two part sleeves is perfect for this big knit fabric and I really like how it came out. The vest is really nice and warm for coming winter.


The pattern
Tunic with raglan sleeves, turtleneck, 2-piece sleeves and kangaroo pocket.

Additional info:
  • 92-176 (EU)   CA 2yo - 16yo (US)
  • Recommended fabrics: Fleece, jogging.
  • Rated 3/6
  • B*trendy #9 or download here: madebyoranges.nl


The fabric
  • Big knit in mauve. 70% cotton, 30% polyester. 500gr/m2. Through: stoffentijd.nl/
  • I used 50 cm.

Pattern instructions
Instructions are not very elaborate, but pattern is not that difficult.

Fit
I made a size 104 (4yo) so it's a bit big. I expect the cotton to shrink a bit more though.


Conclusion 

Love the fabric and like the pattern. Will probably give it another go and make a 'proper' tunic.
