Description
Elevate your casual wardrobe with a dressy take on the classic hoodie in this stylish pullover. Craft it from heavier woven or stable knit fabrics for a polished look. Both views offer a slightly cropped and boxy silhouette, featuring a V-neck, a practical front kangaroo pocket, and a gracefully curved, longer back hem for added coverage. In View A, you have the option of button or snap plackets at the side seams and a lined three-piece hood for extra style, while View B offers sewn side seams without buttons and a timeless one-piece collar. This pattern brings a touch of sophistication to your everyday comfort.
Recommended Fabric
Mid to heavy weight woven fabrics such as, wool flannel, lightweight wool coating, denim and corduroy, or with stable knits like ponte or French terry.
