*Pre-sale* Lauren's Jarrah Sweater in Navy Chichacheetah Mirco French Terry

There’s something lovely about a handmade sweatshirt that feels just as good for a relaxed day at home as it does when you’re heading out! My Jarrah Sweater is a great everyday make, and I love how the Navy Bee Happy Blooms French Terry gives it a more playful feel.

Please note: This fabric is on pre-sale. We expect to ship the project out to you before Christmas. If you would like to order other items, please note that any other items ordered with a pre-sale fabric will all be shipped together when the fabric arrives.

French terry is one of my favourite choices for comfortable everyday sewing. This fabric has a smooth face and a soft, looped reverse, with a little stretch to help make the finished garment comfortable to wear.

If you'd like to recreate my Jarrah Sweater, you'll find your shopping list below. You can add the Jarrah Sweater Top Tips video to use alongside the pattern instructions, with lots of extra help for sewing with knit fabrics.

Lauren's Notes:

• Fabric choice: This french terry has a lovely balance of comfort and structure, making it a great choice for a sweatshirt. Its stretch gives you ease of movement, while the smooth surface shows off the floral print beautifully.

• Styling tip: I’d wear this with jeans and trainers for an easy everyday outfit, or layer it over a shirt for a little extra interest. The cream colourway works well with denim, soft neutrals and other light shades.

• Difficulty level: A brilliant beginner-friendly project and a great introduction to sewing with knits. My Top Tips video is there to help you along the way too!

The fabric quantity included is suitable for making this version of the Jarrah Sweater in sizes 0-20, based on the pattern's recommended fabric requirements for views A or C. If you're making a different size or different version, check the pattern instructions in the gallery and adjust the quantity before adding to your basket.
