Diamond Pullover PDF Sewing Pattern B-M
Skill Level: Confident Beginner
It is a very easy sew. I didnt see Finished sizes on the pattern so chose the wrong size according to my measurements on the pattern. Upside it fit my daughter that wears a larger size.
Love the relaxed fit and style. Easy to assemble, and the simple non colorblocked version is even faster!
I love this sweater. It is perfectly oversized and quick to make! I love the colorblocking options as well, but I have made 3 plain versions since owning this pattern. They are all regulars in my outfit rotation.
If you like a comfy pullover with unique design this is for you!
I was very excited to make and wear this jacket.After printing the pattern, I knew it wild need alteration. This jacket is VERY fitted with the sleeves extremely fitted too. I added four inches to the sleeve width , two on each side, and eight inches to straighten the sides as they were very hourhglass shaped. I am a plus sized lady, to do that much alteration on the pattern and STILL doesn’t fit….yes, disappointment is the nice way to put it. I made a size H/I
The Diamond Pullover isn't a fitted jacket, it's a quite oversized pullover. Also, something must have gone wrong on the print/projector setup (if this is one of our patterns). Did you make sure you had the printer set to 100%/no scaling and print the file that corresponds to the printer paper you're using (A4 or Letter)?
I asked how to lengthen the pattern with no markings as a guide. The response was "Just mark it at 1/2 way down and lengthen there. It is pretty long as it is so check the length on the pattern piece before lengthening." However, if I follow those directions the diamond marks and the body marks will not line up. So frustrating that a pattern maker misses a standard marking on patterns. So I need to line up the individual pattern pieces to lengthen. An added step I just did not expect.
Looked great on my husband!
