Mods to paper pattern: cut 6" in length,
marked placement and added pocket slits,
added arm length
I didn't hem this as my model had a date and was in a hurry. Also I am planning to finish it with an edging, not a hem.
After adding the hood, the neckline is a good half inch thick. As I don't intend to have the hood this way on MY robe (the final use for this mock-up), I did not final stitch and trim the seams.
The velour is stretchier than the melton, so I think I will leave the hem as it is, and add less to the sleeves. Also Likely to cut the hood down considerably.
Tell me what you think, Em.
