Stylearc Sunny Top





This is a Stylearc Sunny top that I made up in a cotton fleece.  I bought this pattern based on the line drawing, and did not realise that it is intended for drapy or slinky knits.  This would explain why the sleeves are slim and not really suitable for layering over long-sleeved tops.  Works well over a t-shirt though.  I will wear this, but next time I make this pattern up, I will try the recommended fabrics.

I hate when I do that ��. But seriously, this is supposed to be a cocoon, and it does look more cocoony than other versions, so it's kind of a good thing, even if it only works on short sleeves

It's pretty cute so glad it worked out with the fleece!

You are right M-C! And I guess it would be an easy change for me to make the sleeves a bit wider.

Looks snuggly. Pity about the sleeves and mismatch of fabric to the pattern. But hey, nothing you couldn't change for next time. Sounds like you're planning on there being a next time!
