The All Around Crew is designed with comfort in mind and includes two views.
View A is cropped and hits at the natural waistline.
View B is tunic length and hits below the hips.
Both views have a wide, relaxed fit with dropped shoulders and a gently curved back hemline. The boxy style sleeves are meant to be worn cuffed for a casual look. If you have never sewn with knit fabric before, this is a great, simple pattern to start with!
The All Around Crew Expansion includes a slimmer sleeve, cuffs at the wrist and a bottom hem band.
Difficulty: Beginner - techniques include inserting a neckband.
Sizing: XXS – 6XL (see sizing chart with the pictures above).

Fabric suggestions:
Knit fabrics such as French terry, sweatshirt fleece, and jersey. Knit fabrics with less stretch will showcase the oversized boxy cut, while knits with more drape will give a relaxed and flowing fit. For the neckline, we suggest using a knit fabric with greater stretch, such as a rib knit. You can also use your main body fabric if it has at least 40% stretch.
