Notes This is another pattern where it was a battle to coax the software to generate a pattern for me without errors. I think because I'm short and have relatively big arms, the top diagonal style line interfered with the armscye. I finally got it to work after several rounds of tweaking the parameters.

Made from 4 used child-sized t-shirts, 3 striped and 1 solid. I lengthened the sleeves and added a neckband because the neckline is too open for fall/winter. I love it and it was worth the battle to get the pattern generated!

    Hi Susan, thank you. My original order with my normal saved size and adjustments wasn't successful (error message; no pattern) but I liked the style a lot and wasn't about to give up!

    By "tweaking", I meant that I kept ordering the preview with slightly different measurements and adjustments until I stumble across one that actually generated the pattern instead of giving me an error message. Then I ordered the pattern in that size.

    I am curious that you can tweak the software to generate the pattern for yourself. I didn't know you could do that, I'd love to know how please. you did a great job.
