Pattern Puzzle - Asymmetric Jersey Top


The sketch below is a trend research from 2009 for knitwear, Summer 2011.  I'm usually not a fan of overtly asymmetric cutting and will always feel a little odd if one sleeve is so much shorter than the other.  But with this design I am strangely compelled to give it a chance.  I think it may look interesting using different knits for each of the panels.


You'll find all the pattern making detail on the website blog.

    Dear Anita,
    may I show the material given in this post in the Russian sewing community? They love these constructions and are very interested in your techniques.

      I have now experienced the Russia blogs enough to know that I would prefer you did not share. So much of my blog content has been taken by russian bloggers and claimed as their own! :/ So please do not encourage the sharing of my work in that community. Thx for asking. Anita

    I struggled to understand how this pattern worked...then the light came on. Traced off the dress pattern last night.

      Hi Gail. I love it when that happens. :) Looking forward to fitting your dress block. Teresa and I have been making some trouser block fitting videos. Very exciting!

    I finally had time to sit down with your blog tonight and wow! I'm loving all the patternmaking going on here. The way you go about creating a pattern for a sketch is so clever and again shows the importance of a good fitting block.

    Hello, I just tried this idea last week and was excited to share the result. Some small things to correct next time but overall I am very satisfied (and Monsieur really loves it as well!!!)

    Thanks for your work, I really look forward to the puzzles every week and would like to have the time to try most of them on fabric!

      Hi Julia. Comment received. Thx :) I think the system resists comments with links or url's. Just to keep the spammers away I think.
