I Am Rainbow, a sweatshirt where the only limit is your imagination. Choose from 70 variations with pockets and 26 versions without. Make me in your favourite length: classic, above the knee, below the knee or mid calf. I have three pockets to choose from: kangaroo, welt or in-seam. Make me with or without a zip. At the neckline, choose either a classic or overlapping hood or neckband. I can be finished with or without ribbing.
The different pieces overlap with each other so you will need to trace the pattern on paper.
Seam allowances are included.
Size 36 to 46. See sizing guide in the images
✂ RECOMMENDED FABRICS:
Garment Jersey for sweatshirt, interlock knit, neoprene, French Terry…
Ribbing: ribbing by the meter or the same fabric used for the garment (this pattern is not designed for using pre-cut ribbing bands).
