Learn Pattern Making using my Online Resources

In this post I hope to link up some of the illustration and patternmaking resources I have on the website so you can plan your pattern making creativity over the summer break.  These suggestions are a combination of free access blog posts, PDF worksheets with pattern making instructions and Digital Garment Blocks to begin all your pattern making projects.
My Womens Knit Block 6-16 & 12-22 is ready to use when you try the pattern making worksheet for Jersey Twist Pattern Making Worksheet (Download).  Remember when you’re checking your knit block for fit it should be at least body measurement or feature a maximum of 4cm negative ease.
You can then follow-up with this next level Jersey Twist well-suited blog post:  Pattern Fundamentals – COWL TWIST JERSEY.  When you extend your knit block to dress length please pay particular attention to achieving a good shape over the hip curve of the dress.
If you’re looking for more fabulous stretch pattern designs to make with your Knit Block there’s a curated post that links to all relevant pattern puzzles. Making the Most of My Knit Block
