The last time we did this sort of surprise giveaway, it was super popular with our regular readers. I hope it will be this time too. To explain, we've been working very hard recently on a new set of videos for our Youtube channel. The first of these should be out soon so I hope you'll check it out. In any case, I'll admit that this has put me a little behind in my pattern drafting. I like to try to have a fresh new project ready for our readers every Sunday. I almost got there with an exciting new top for the Workout Wardrobe, but that will have to wait for next week.
In its place and to thank you all for your patience, we're going to do something special in giving away one of our very popular paid patterns — Slouchy Sweater which I'm sure you'll love. It has outsold many of our other designs and has a normal price of $5.95 in our Etsy and Craftsy stores where you can see that the pattern has 5* reviews. It's a wonderful pattern for beginners to start on while it also provides many personal styling options for the more experienced sewists in the group.
This pattern has proven very popular as it comes with detailed PDF instructions which are richly illustrated. The design has been thoroughly tested with plenty of user examples for you to look at. And there's a full video tutorial to guide you through the entire process from cutting the pattern to final construction.
You can read more about the pattern by clicking the link or image below or go straight to the download box at the bottom of this page to get it FREE for today only from our account at Craftsy.
For the avoidance of doubt, this pattern will go back to normal price at noon, US EST on Monday, Feb 27 to allow all our readers in Australia, New Zealand, and Europe to have a full day to download it as well. Be sure to share this around so your friends don't miss out.

THAnk you so much, you’ve got me back to my old hobby, after 45years.
You are most welcome Celia, glad you are back into he land of creativity. Enjoy!
Lovely, thank you very much. This will be my first try with a knit fabric…crossing my fingers
Good luck Elena!
Thank you both so much for your kind gift! I do so wish I could give something in return that would make you feel as happy as it has made me. Without going into boring details, I’m barely home from hospital after months inside and tomorrow, this charming jumper will be the very first thing I attempt to sew for the first time in months. I love it; thank you so much.
With warm greetings from a very windy and wet Scottish farm❤
WOW! Betty, congratulations on making it back home and hope you stay healthy and happy, enjoy the pattern, keep in touch please!
Thanks so much. It looks easy.
Indeed it is Patti, Enjoy!
Wow, thank you! 🙂 I look forward to watching your videos
Thank you. This pattern is exactly what I was looking for.
One thing, if you want the sleeve opening to not hang open to show your bra, do I just sew the side seam up higher, or will that distort the look of the shirt?
Yes it probably would, but that would depend on how wide your arms are. The slimmer the arm the more your bra will show.
Thank you, I’m taking this as a sign to use this pattern to finally try and get over my fear of knits…
Dear Jenny, practice will get you there, get a scrap of fabric and practice first to learn how your machine handles the fabric and you will be hooked on knits before you know it.
Thank you so much – I have been looking for a pattern to use with some beautiful knit fabric I just bought and this is perfect. I can’t wait to get started on it!
You are welcome!
Thank you so much. Love your patterns.
You are welcome Helen!
