Loved it - VikiSews

First time making a VikiSews pattern and I loved it. The shirring takes a while, but is pretty easy. I forwent the guidelines and just used my foot as a marker so probably ended up doing more than I needed to.

Absolute beginners may be put off by the lack of measurements for cuffs and sleeve (at least I couldnt see any) but it's pretty easy to work out by feel.

Will definitely buy another Vikisews again.
