About:

There are many sweatshirt patterns for sewing but the Hansville Sweatshirt PDF Sewing Pattern is the best one for thebeginner sewist.

You'll learn the basics of how to sew a sweatshirt including how to sew sleeves (they're really easy!) And I'll be remindingyou that the shoulder seam needs to be laying towards the back as we sew the sleeve cap to the shoulder seam of the sweatshirt.

The sewinginstructions are written for the beginner. The language and pictures are so clear that you can tell exactly what you need to do every step of the way as we sew the sweatshirt.

And in addition to the beginner friendlysewing instructionI created for you a sewing video for beginners (it's the video above). You can learn to sew a sweatshirt from the comfort of your couch before you even pick your fabric out. Gain the confidence you need to learn knew to sew before you even pick out your fabric!

TheHansvilleSweatshirt has a relaxed fit as you would expect from a sweatshirt.For the main pieces (not the neckband) a 2-way stretch fabric with 35% stretch across the grain is perfect!

For the neckband I recommend using rib knit that has some spandex in it. Rib knit makes the most beautifully finished neckbands you can imagine. If you haven't tried it, you must!

The Hansville has 3 options for the neckline. You can sew a hood, a crew neckband or a more scooped out neckband.

The hood is nicely fitted, the crew neckband sits close to the neck and the scooped neckband sits off of the neck but still high.

You also get 2 waistband options: a standard waistband that is the same width as the shirt or you can do the tapered waistband that will draw the shirt close to the hip.

And that's not all!

You also get 2 wristband options! Zoinks! One wristband is standard and the other is taller more of a euro vibe (this taller wristband also comes with a shorter sleeve to offset the wristbands height).

Don't forget you can also add a pocket!
