Description
As my name is Lydia I absolutely had to do the Lydia pattern sooner or later. But I altered it a bit (it is the perfect pattern for alterations!), I made sleeves and body 15 cm longer and changed the neckline. I also ever wanted sleeves with a hole for the thumb in it! The fabric cost only 2€/meter. I really like how it turned out and it is really comfy to wear.
Btw.: that’s Walter Ulbricht I’m trying to kiss, but I had to laugh so hard. He lives in our kitchen and watches over our kooking (and the bratwursts)
Material Notes
cotton jersey I think

Hey guys, thanks for all your nice comments! I would really like to make a How-To, but it is a little bit difficult because I didn’t take photos. If I find the right fabric I’ll maybe do it again and than show you, or I’ll find another way … we will see :)

This looks super. Looks like an expensive garment from Bench or something similar. You should make a how-to for these thumb holes or for this sweat altogether.
