Easy peasy - Sidney Sweatshirt

I’ve made two of these so far and friends are commissioning me to make for them too. I made my first one up in a lovely thick fleece backed organic cotton sweat fabric from Ray Stitch. They had some matching rib. Take it down at least one size from your usual if not two. It is definitely boxy in shape and a dream to put together. I didn’t bother with the lower rib as it didn’t look right so I did a hem and double top stitched which looks just right with the generally square shape. I made the rib a little tighter round the wrist and neck for my second one. Again it depends on the look you want. I’d highly recommend. My overlocker gave me a lovely finish to the seams but a zigzag will do just as well.
