New Pattern: Lamma Hoodie & Sweatshirt
It’s always a good sign when my testers want to make multiples of one design. If I judge a pattern by the number of testers who wanted to test and the number of finished garments they created, the new Itch to Stitch pattern, Lamma Hoodie & Sweatshirt, is on FIRE!
For this first pattern of 2021, I still want a lot of comfort and coziness. I think all of us want that, don’t we? So I designed a top for sweatshirting fabric that I love to wear every day. And in fact, I have been waring mine every day!
Of course, this pattern comes in sizes 00 to 40. My newer patterns have been and will use this expanded size range.
Even though I usually don’t include any cup sizes for designs made in knit fabrics, but for the Lamma, I included a “full-bust” option (in addition to the regular-bust option) for an excellent bust fit.
Lamma Hoodie & Sweatshirt Features:
- Options for regular bust and full bust
- Front princess seams for an ultra-flattering fit
- Front in-seam pockets
- Long raglan sleeves with shoulder darts
- Designed for sweatshirting and heavier knit fabric with low stretch
- View A: Lined three-piece hood and thumbhole sleeves
- View B: Cowl neck and cuffed sleeves
For one week (through January 25, 2021), the Lamma Hoodie & Sweatshirt sewing pattern is 20% off. The volume discount still applies—get 15% off your entire cart if your purchase is $20 or more, or 20% off your entire cart if your purchase is $30 or more!
I hesitated to call the Lamma a “sweatshirt” because the term could give an impression that it is oversized and shapeless (what else can I call it?) But that is very far from the truth. The Lamma is anything but a shapeless bag. The princess seams give a great fit. The fit is equally flattering to those who are small-busted or large-busted.
The Lamma is also an excellent way to use up some of the large scrap fabric. You know, those pieces that are too large to give up, but too small for a whole garment. My testers have fun digging through their stash to come up with many excellent combinations.
Let’s take a look at my talented testers’ photos!
Thank you so much for testing!

Be sure to get your Lamma Hoodie & Sweatshirt pattern while it’s 20% off (only through January 25, 2021)!
Oh, this is lovely and such wonderful inspiration from the pattern testers! I too prefer zipper tops vs. pull on but hey, that’s an easy hack.
The test group must have been buzzing with creativity and joy! Another marvellous design from your hand, love it!
This is really inspiring!
This pattern has such beautiful lines! I love it. Sadly, I prefer a zipped hoodie, as it’s easier to ‘ventilate’ when I need to.
Lovely make! The testers sure did a fantastic job of showcasing the design elements of the hoodie. Really love the sleeve and pocket details. Looks so comfy yet still retains the flattering look on everyone
So many variations can be made to have a few of these in the wardrobe “staple”
Oooh, I’d said no more patterns for now but I’m not sure I can resist!
Oh! I absolutely love this! The style is perfect, the fit sporty yet feminine. Your thumb hole sleeves are perfect for both comfort and style. Already shopping my stash to see what I can use to make one or two or…
If you were to make this with a stretcher knit would you recommend going down a size?
Ooh this is lovely, I can see it going so well with the Fortuna Joggers
