About this pattern

Create the Olivia jersey knit sweatshirt top with Posner and Posner’s sewing pattern.

Stitch up the relaxed Olivia sweatshirt from Posner and Posner's pattern - a great intro to sewing with stretch knits. This sewing pattern will see you master inserting sleeves and pockets, and using an overlocker to create a beach-ready pullover. 

Essentials

  • Fabric: 2m (150cm)
  • Cord or woven tape, 1m
  • Fusible interfacing, 25cm

    Top sewing tip

    It can be helpful to draw in the stitching lines with a water-soluble fabric pen.

    Suggested fabrics

    Knit fabrics with 5% stretch, such as French terry or cotton jersey.
