This is from the Idit pattern and was my first foray into working with knits. I found the fabric easier to manage than I thought it would be, but it was still tough! I’m not totally happy with the fit. The front opens pretty loosely, so I might close it up a bit. Also the sleeves seem a bit funny to me. I attribute this to my inexperience and not the pattern, though! I’m looking forward to trying it again.
