Nothing too exciting, frankly, but can you ever have enough comfy knit tops? I bought this pattern because I really like the gathered neckband. It turned out to be very fiddly and time-consuming! I made View C, and the only change I made was to skip the elastic in the sleeve cuffs and finished it with a narrow sleeve band instead. The fabric is rayon lycra jersey from Fabric.com that I bought in June.
In a few hours, I'm boarding a plane to the SF Bay area to celebrate Thanksgiving with the in-laws. I'm bringing this along for the ride:
I love the Seattle Public Library! This is the only Threads DVD I found there, I hope they get in more soon.
On Friday, I have an exciting day planned that involves sewing friends and fabric stores...
Have a great Thanksgiving everyone!

Lovelyt top.. I've made 3 of them, but did view A which is the dress and just cut it and the neckband is fuss free. If you decide to do another one try view A.
Have a safe trip and an awesome Thanksgiving.
You'll like that DVD with Louise Cutting. She's got some great methods. Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving! Love the top. One day, even I shall sew with knit fabrics :)
The Threads DVD is great! I hope you enjoy it.
Nice top! Looks cute on you!
Nothing wrong with comfy knit tops! Happy Thanksgiving!
Cute top! And thanks for the heads-up on the notions - my knit hems always look terrible, and I'm desperately searching for a solution. So, you didn't sew the hem at all? Just used the fusible interfacing instead?
(My library has David Coffin's Shirtmaking book, but I've been on the waitlist for over 7 months. Evidently, Toronto has more sewists than I think.)
