It was difficult to make the stripes match – but really only because the stripes didn’t match on the fabric and were also off grain. Fun! I just pushed and prodded to make them match :o)

I love your hoody. It looks so comfy and cute! I took a look at your blog post and I much prefer the snug fit you produced to the actual pattern pictures. Great job on stripe matching, you can’t even tell you had trouble with it. I’ve never heard of papercut patterns but I’m looking them up now. Great job!

Thank you! I’m glad the painful stripe matching paid off :) Papercut have some really pretty things – enjoy!
