Coming out of a twirl. :) LLB A-line- I use a slightly thicker neck ribbing, as this one runs a little wide for my taste. I also drop the neckline a smidge (and adjust the sleeves accordingly) to make a true front and back. Really quick and easy pattern- I've probably made a dozen, and have more in the works. The fabric is a 4 way stretch knit from Joann's- wish it wasn't 100% poly (I would've put it back, had I noticed), but, it seems pretty comfortable. It was really easy to match the print along the seams and raglan sleeve lines- something store clothing is notoriously awful about. I serge the hem, apply steam-a-seam, iron up and do two lines of straight stitching to mimic a coverstitch- it sounds really time intensive typed out, but, it really isn't, and makes for a really nice flat hem on even the stretchiest knits.
