  1. Belinda –

    Perfect fit, just so easy to make and beautiful to wear.

  2. Anonymous –

    This pattern is well drafted and thought out. I enjoyed making it and plan to make another one. The instructions were excellent and it was true to the measurements quoted. I wasn’t sure about whether the bust dart was necessary but the top does hang well with it.

  3. Shelley –

    Found the proportions top heavy in fleece

  4. Sandra –

    I like the cut of this top. I have to shorten the sleeves on most patterns and assume on this one too. It looks like RTW, but has the advantage of making it fit well and choosing your own colors.

  5. Carolyn –

    My only complaint is that the pullover is too big for me. My fault since I didn’t make a toile, but I did use the measurements. I think I might like the pullover better had it not had bust darts. That might be because none of my other fleeces (fleeci?) have bust darts. I need to try again in a smaller size. The pattern is well written and I love the links to helpful tutorials.

  6. Erin –

    Loved this pattern!

  7. Rachel –

    Good pattern, it’s hard to talk what to do first in the instructions. I’m part way though making it, but need to add another panel at the bottom as it doesn’t feel long enough. I’ll know for next time to lengthen it.

  8. Jeni –

    Can’t get through winter….or camping without this.

  9. kimhenn –

    Great fit ! Went together easily and the instructions were well written. Will be making this one again.

  10. Joan –

    This stylish spring pullover goes together perfectly. The placket and bias trim in patterned fabrics give the top a very personal look. Sporty elegance!

  11. Anne –

    Great pattern. Easy fit and sew!!!!!

  12. Marie Chantal –

    Perfect 👌🏻

  13. Chris –

    Loved this one!

  14. Anonymous –

    Lovely pattern. Easy to make yet looks complicated. Great for adding personal hacks. Highly recommend.

  15. Sheryl –

    Itch to stitch has some of the best instructions there is. Spot on with the picture details. Patterns are extremely well marked, notches always match and the layering printing, so you can print only what you need is fantastic. Love Itch to stitch.

  16. Deborah –

    I love pullovers like the Bainbridge so easy and quick to make

  17. Jacquelyn –

    This pullover turned out so well. Drafted beautifully. I made it up in knit boucle with batik bias binding. Love it!

  18. Nicole –

    Really great sewing pattern. Exactly what I was looking for! The fit is great.

  19. Addrea –

    Another great pattern! Have made two already and will make more. Easy to see with wonderful results.

  20. Christine –

    The most recent patterns are exactly what I wear every day rather than dresses. Thank you for making patterns of the clothes I’d be buying at the active outdoor wear retail stores. I can now make them better fitting and with my own fabric choices!

  21. Eileen –

    Such an easy pattern, and the contrast placket and binding gives it real distinction! Now to make another one in a different colour.

Material

Primary Fabric Medium to medium-heavy weight knit fabric with 5-15% stretch such as microfleece, sherpa fleece and sweatshirting. Medium weight stretch woven is also acceptable.

Contrast Fabric Stable lightweight woven fabric with no stretch such as quilting cotton and chambray. This fabric is for the front placket.

Interfacing Lightweight woven or weft insertion fusible interfacing

Bias Binding Fabric Stable lightweight woven fabric with no stretch such as quilting cotton and chambray. Ideally, use a fabric that will result in a nice sharp crease when pressed. This can be the same as the contrast fabric. No pattern piece is provided. The self-made bias stripe should be 1 7/8″ (4.8 cm) wide.

Other Materials

  • Five (5) sets of 1/2” (12.5 mm) snap closure with corresponding tool for installation.
  • 46″ (117 cm) of 3/8” or 1/2” (1 cm or 1.25 cm)-wide straight fusible stay tape (or cut your own using lightweight woven fusible interfacing on the straight grain)

Fabric Requirements

Most natural fibers shrink in the wash; be sure to have enough fabric. The requirements below assume that the fabric is already pre-shrunk.

How to choose your size

  1. Determine your cup size—subtract the circumference of your over bust from the circumference of the fullest part of your bust. If the rounded difference is 1″ (2.5 cm), use A cup; 2″ (5 cm), use B cup; 3″ (7.5 cm), use C cup; 4″ (10 cm), use D cup; 5″ (12.5 cm), use DD cup.
  2. After determining the cup size, compare your bust circumference (fullest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Using the corresponding row for your cup, choose the size that best fits your bust. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
  3. Compare your waist circumference (narrowest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that best fits your waist. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
  4. Compare your hip circumference (widest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that fits your hip best. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
  5. It’s OK to use different sizes for the bust, waist and hip. The instructions for blending sizes are included in the pattern.
  6. If you are taller or shorter than 5’6” (168 cm), you should consider lengthening or shortening the garment. The instructions for lengthening or shortening are included in the pattern.
