What was your inspiration?

Asking for help here and I don't see any place to ask questions. This Sweatshirt is several sizes to large for me but way I lay down the Large Pattern piece over it, it doesn't seams to make a big difference. I don't see a measurement guide for the pattern sizes is there one? What do I do about the under arm seams I would have to cut through to make the pattern fit? Is there an easier way to do this? I wanted to just make an open neck not a hoodie - I'm 60 years old and it doesn't really suit me. Any suggestions?

Note: I'm re-purposing a thrift store xl sweatshirt and cutting it down to size. I found the size chart.

Ok I see the size chart at the bottom (instead of top) of the list of patterns to print out.

the only way I have found to ask a question is to watch the video lesson-- then on the right side of the screen it will show previous questions. There's a place that says "ask a question" so you can click there and ask. If you want to see all the previous questions you can go to your class homeroom and there's a tab for questions. They are grouped by each video lesson.

help craftys.com and ask your questions. I asked them to send me the size for this class and they sent them to me. Good luck.

Hello LindieLee It does look a little bit oversized, but the colour looks nice. Under classmaterials is a PDF called supplies and resources. On page 2 is a size chart. Happy sewing!
