[This is a digital PDF file and can only be download on a desktop computer.]

Inspired by the classic hoodie, this pull over hoodie is a perfect capsule wardrobe piece. The pattern is an oversized cropped fit, and with easy modifications provided in this booklet, the hoodie can be made at any length. Features include an option for a front pocket and options for exposed or concealed finished edges.  This design can be unisex, however some modifications may be required. 

As a mostly paperless pattern, most details are provided as templates and are required to be transferred onto the fabric. This requires special attention and thoughtfulness in the prep work as well as the sewing portion of the garment. The garment construction requires advanced beginner skills for working with stretch fabrics. Additionally, the exposed edge option recommends an overlock machine and experience with adjusting tensions to ensure a clean look. Note that an overlock is not required to make the Hoodie.

The Hoodie is a low waste design. While the design is not 100% zero waste, it pushes the boundaries to be as low waste as possible. Some sizes will produce less waste than others. The overall goal of the design is to make a conscious effort to reduce fabric waste whenever possible.
