   I love this pattern. I finally made one of these on Saturday - a present for someone who wants to have a little Lati Skateboard gang and is lending me a dolly to play with - I have 3 more to go. I am so happy I finally made it - it’s incredibly cute. The tricky part is adding enough snaps in the back and the front pocket.

   yeah, little pockets are tricky! it saves a little time if you trap the bottom of the pocket in the waistband seam (instead of hemming it), but it requires some planning ahead.

   glad you like it! I hope you post a pic of the skateboard gang!

   This looks cute~^_^ I was wondering if there will be instructions for this? o.o;; I can’t really figure it out O3O;;

   Hi, I am also wondering if there will be instructions for this one, as I can’t quite figure out how it goes together. The back piece says to cut it on a fold and so does the front. In the pic you have of yours, it doesn’t look like the opening is in the front, so I assumed it was in the back, but then why is it cut on a fold and how do you attach the hood.
   Would like to say Thank you so much for these adorable patterns. I finally figured out how to print them the right size and I just love them.
   Thank’s for any help you can give on the hoodie pattern!!

   looks like a great pattern I think maybe what is causing confusion is the little circle sign. only the front . sleeve and hood are placed ON the fold ,on the back,waistband and wristband that sign denotes ‘fold here’ Maybe for the hood.. try butting the two back pieces together and treat that as one piece of fabric to sew the hood to ? IF that works then you could put hooks and eyes on the back opening to keep it closed.. that’d butt the edges together .that sounds Ok in theory anyway LOL.. that’s what I’m going to try

   debby - the circle sign means that you fold the fabric, place the pattern on the fold, and cut all other sides except the fold. for the back two pieces, cut them out seperately (mirrored) and then fold at the dot to create the hem.

   here’s some quick instructions, or an order of operations:

   *(if you are attaching an optional front pocket, sew it to the front of the shirt first)
   -attach the sleeves at the shoulders to the front piece and both back pieces,
   -fold the cuffs and attach to sleeves
   -hem the front edge of the hood
   -seam the back of the hood together, leaving about an inch at the bottom open
   -attach the hood to the neck and shoulders of the shirt
   -seam the sides of the shirt together
   -fold the waistband and attach
   -attach snaps

   good luck!

   I guess my pattern shouldn’t have a circle on the back pieces, technically. I usually sew from tracing paper patterns and then when i convert them into illustrator for the site, sometimes my symbols aren’t 100% perfect because I don’t traditionally sew from stock patterns

   Would this fitr Blythe? I’ve been looking everywhere for a hoodie pattern for my Blythe

   Hi Rachael, this pattern would be too small for blythe. Latis are only 6″ tall and have smaller heads. You could experiment into adapting this pattern by lengthening the body (chest measurement would be just about the same) and increasing the size of the hood by maybe 200%.

   experimenting with adjusting patterns is fun and is actually how I make my blythe sweatshirts - I combined the blythe hooded cape pattern from this Dolly Dolly mook:
   dolly dolly x momolita

   with an adjusted momoko sweatshirt from this dolly dolly mook:
   dolly dolly x 4 leaf clover
