I saw a couple of other people’s versions of the Just Patterns Sybil Sweatshirt come across my dash and I really loved the unique styling of the notched collar on a ponte/sweatshirt top. So I waited, and pounced when there was a storewide sale at the end of last year, and combined that with a sale on large format printing, too!
I’m glad I read other people’s comments before sewing this, because literally everyone says this is super oversized! I went down 1-2 sizes to a 42 instead, and tbh, I could’ve sized down even further because this still feels too big (especially in the sleeves and hips).
I used the “Peach Listening Face” brushed back sweatshirting I bought from Fabrics Galore in their end of year 50% off sale – my 1.5m was a bargainous £12 total! There was even some leftover because I opted to cut the collar from leftover black sweatshirting (also from Fabrics Galore) that I had leftover from my Lestat looming head sweatshirt. I love that this print looks like a leopard print from a distance, but the closer you get, you realise it’s a bunch of female faces!
