I just made this hoodie in 2 sizes larger than my usual size, its exactly what i wanted and its so comfy! Thank you Isa for the video tutorial

[@isainstitches]

That's great news, I'm so glad!!! Thanks for letting me know

[@ek-nz]

Great tutorial, thank you. I’m going to try to make something like this in wool fabric recycled from old wool shirts. Wish me luck!

[@isainstitches]

This is a wonderful idea, makes me want to try!

[@ek-nz]

@@isainstitches I’ll let you know how it turns out :)

[@mrsdavie7364]

Really great tutorial 👍

[@isainstitches]

Thank you! Cheers!

I watched this video for guidance on the kangaroo pocket... I'm making up a vintage 80s hoodie pattern using a high elastane content cotton mix for a lounge top. I really like your videos and the way you share your knowledge. Thank you!!

[@isainstitches]

Glad I could help!! This sounds like a fun and comfy project! Are you happy with the result? Did you find a vintage pattern for it?

[@freshrestorations606]

🙏 amen

[@AnAn-fi3gl]

Hi Isa! Great video - thank you! I thought of sewing the hoodie without the sleeves. Any ideas on how to have a nice seam?

[@isainstitches]

Hi! Sure! Invisible bias binding (French method) will be the best method I believe!

[@user-zy5gs9fn6w]

Hey, your hoodie fits you verry well. What size are you wearing usually and which size are you sewing in the video?

[@isainstitches]

Yes, good question! I'm an XS for bust and waist these days, but I have larger shoulders than a regular XS so I took an S (EU 36)

[@chanellerichardson7338]

Could I use this pattern for the body and combine it with your Comfort Hood Balaclava Hat pattern?

[@isainstitches]

Absolutely!

[@idealdayz]

hi ! i want to make it a big boxer and make the pocket/hood bigger, how should i do that ??

[@idealdayz]

*bit boxy

[@isainstitches]

Hi! Sure, here's what you can do : 1) pick your size, nothing fancy here, 2) when cutting your paper pattern, just for the neckhole and the hood, choose a bigger size (the measurements of the neckhole and hood correspond) 3) for the pocket, you can take one from a bigger size, or trace it bigger yourself.

[@idealdayz]

@@isainstitches perfect, thank you !

[@01SimSim10]

I would like to make the hoodie lighter for summer wear, what fabric can I use to make the hoodie more summer friendly? (I live in 80-90 degree Fahrenheit weather)

[@isainstitches]

Hi! Take a light sweatshirt fabric (be aware that the final look will be a bit slouchy with a thinner fabric)

[@d33n42]

Hey how much ribbing would I need for this ?

[@isainstitches]

All fabric yardage is indicated among the pics on Etsy & my website

[@eoingreally4749]

Hey just wondering is the patter just for women’s hoodies?

[@isainstitches]

Hi, yes

[@mrsdavie7364]

What is the pattern?

[@isainstitches]

It's the Franki Hoodie, see the link in bio ^^
