The last of my Spring Top Week projects–I finished this one a little late to enter it into the actual challenge, and now I wish I’d done it earlier . I was so afraid of that silly zipper (this was my first zipper), and it ended up being so easy! I feel a little ridiculous now that I was so afraid of sewing in a zipper! Yes, Shelly, you told me so . . . The fabric is organic cotton/lycra french terry that I bought from The Fabric Fairy with this hoodie in mind. I used the Favorite Things Hoodie pattern, but I made a few adjustments to get it to fit well. The major adjustments were narrowing it across the shoulders and tapering and extending the sleeves.

Whew! That was a busy week of sewing, but it was a lot of fun!
Bonnie, your jacket looks great.
Zippers are no sweat–even on knit!
