What patterns are you planning to get in the 25% off sale?⁠ ⁠ The most popular seller so far has been the Mahina Cardigan - I guess it's a good time of year to snuggle up in an elegant wrap cardigan!⁠ ⁠ (they aren't wrong: I wore one this morning to ward off the spring chill).⁠ ⁠ 🌺 Sale on now until midnight Monday 29 Nov, NZ Time. Discount is applied automatically at checkout. 🌺⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #scrooppatterns #mahinacardigan #patternsale #sewingpatterns #indiesewingpatterns #sewingpatternsale

I will never not love the fact that Mahina Cardigans are as comfortable as blankets, while being totally elegant. My costuming students describe this one as my 'meeting the queen' cardigan. ⁠😂 .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ 🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑🌒🌗🌔🌕⁣⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ #scrooppatterns #mahinacardigan #sewingknits #cardiganpattern #makersgonnamake #memadeeveryday #newpattern #sewexciting #sewing #sewingfun #sewinglove #indiepattern #indiepatterndesigner #sewists #patterndesigner #patterndesign #sewingpatterns #sewinclusive #izeinclusivesewingpattern #sewingpatterndesigner #isew #ilovesewing #sewinglife #sewingblogger #indiesewing ⠀⁠

Rose shows off a Mahina Cardigan in a lacy cotton knit, over a Miramar top.

Shop update! If the Mahina Cardigan has been on your wishlist, now is the time to get it!⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ I'll be taking it down from the shop for a couple of months due to boring pragmatic reasons about the number of products my current download programme supports. It will be back on sale in early June or so, when the third 2021 Scroop Pattern launches. ⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ If you haven't looked at it, may I highly recommend it! I find the Mahina so for transitional weather. It looks so much dressier than a cardigan, and pairs beautifully with dresses and other garments that are tricky to find cover-ups for. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The pattern features a unique customisable fit system, so the sleeves and shoulders are just right for you. It's as comfy as a blanket, and can look dressed up or casual depending on what fabric it's made from. ⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ 🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑🌒🌗🌔🌕⁣⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ #scrooppatterns #mahinacardigan #sewingknits #cardiganpattern #sewyourown #fittingpatterns #memadeeveryday #newpattern #soexciting #sewing #sewingfun #sewinglove #indiepattern #indiepatterndesigner #sewists #patterndesigner #patterndesign #sewingpatterns #sewinclusive #sewcurvy #sewingpatterndesigner #isew #ilovesewing #sewinglife #sewingblogger #indiesewing ⠀⁠

Pattern #9! The Mahina Cardigan.⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ Mahina means moon in Hawai'ian and māhina means moon in te reo Māori (and is the name of a bay not far from where I live here in NZ), and the phases of the moon were the inspiration for this circular cardigan. The round shape forms elegant ripples of halves and crescents around your body. ⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ The pattern features a unique customisable fit system, so the sleeves and shoulders are just right for you. It's as comfy as a blanket, and can look dressed up or casual depending on what fabric it's made from - my students call the pink version my 'meeting the queen' outfit 🤣 ⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ 🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑🌒🌗🌔🌕⁣⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ .⠀⁠⠀ #scrooppatterns #mahinacardigan #sewingknits #cardiganpattern #sewyourown #fittingpatterns #memadeeveryday #newpattern #soexciting #sewing #sewingfun #sewinglove #indiepattern #indiepatterndesigner #sewists #patterndesigner #patterndesign #sewingpatterns #sewinclusive #sewcurvy #sewingpatterndesigner #isew #ilovesewing #sewinglife #sewingblogger #indiesewing ⠀⁠⠀

Today's#memademay didn't actually get worn all day, but my #mahinacardigan from @scrooppatterns is a year-round staple for me living on the West Coast. This is view C with the sleeves shortened to my preferred length.

Today is cold and I’m wearing a hug. The layers are made up of gifts over the years. My scarf was knitted by my lovely grandma, the fabric for my #mahinacardigan was from the awesome @thedreamstress, the #yorkpinafore is in a wool denim blend from a friend’s mum, the fingerless gloves were a gift from an old work colleague, the merino base layer was a gift from my mum and the earrings my husband bought me many years ago. There are many types of warmth and these layers warm my heart as well as my body ❤️ #sewingmakesmehappy #mmm2020 #makersgonnamake

The Augusta Stays have been the most popular item in the #scrooppatternsale so far, but super-complicated is not the only thing we do! ⁠ .⁠ Some of the simpler patterns, like the #mahinacardigan and the #miramartop, are hot in the Augusta's heels for best-sellers. ⁠ .⁠ Sometimes it's nice to make elaborate things, sometimes it's nice to make a simple 2-hour pattern - especially when the finished result is like a very elegant blanket. ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⠀⁠ #scrooppatterns #sewingknits #cardiganpattern #sewingtops #memadeeveryday #sewexciting #sewing #sewingfun #sewinglove #indiepattern #indiepatterndesigner #sewists #patterndesigner #patterndesign #sewingpatterns #sewinclusive #sewcurvy #sewingpatterndesigner #isew #ilovesewing #sewinglife #sewingblogger #indiesewing ⠀⁠

It's been ages since I showed off the Mahina Cardigan pattern, which is definitely something I need to fix, since it's basically the world's most elegant blanket.

New blog post! After waiting about two years for it to become a pattern, I got to test the Mahina Cardigan for @scrooppatterns last month!I absolutely love the sizing system used for this garment, and the cardigan itself is pretty great too!

I hope everyone's doing OK in isolation. ❤️ I enjoy a lot of alone time, but I'm definitely missing hang outs and catch ups. Especially the ones that were already scheduled, so my brain had time to get all psyched up for them. ⁠ ⁠ Who else likes their socialising to be super pre-planned? 😬😜⁠ .⁠ .⁠ Pictured: Rose, Paula & myself hanging out in our #mahinacardigans at the end of the pattern sample photoshoot⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⠀⁠ #sewconnected #sewcialdistancing #stayhome #scrooppatterns #mahinacardigan #sewingknits #cardiganpattern #memadeeveryday #sewing #sewingfun #sewinglove #indiepattern #indiepatterndesigner #sewists #ilovesewing #sewinglife ⠀⁠

DID YOU KNOW that @scrooppatterns has reached 5K followers, and she's doing a giveaway?! This is the pattern I've been dying for... but haven't bought bc a fabric hasn't been *the one* yet. Stupid, I know. Pretty sure this gorgeous and practical pattern will make any fabric look amazing! For an amazing example of the #mahinacardigan made up, go check out @thesewinggoatherd's blog - hers is what made me want one so badly! #scrooppatterns #elegantcomfort
