Why you need this pattern:

Okay you guys, It’s officially comfy/cozy season! A couple months ago I sewed up this sweater dress using New Look Pattern 6683. This dress is a bit oversized, so it is soooo comfortable and warm. It also has a drop shoulder which takes the comfort to a whole other level! I wanted to sew it ahead of time so that I had it ready to wear once it got cold, which is now! If you’re ready to start this project, scroll ahead to my in depth sew-along tutorial. If you want to know “all the things”, keep reading!

Fun Facts:

When I first saw this New Look pattern I knew I wanted to find a super cozy cable knit just like the model on the pattern envelope. My color palette this fall consists of a lot of greens, cranberries and darker colors, but for some reason I was drawn to this baby pink cable knit! I wanted to bring out my inner snow bunny! lol I envisioned myself sipping hot cocoa at a ski lodge somewhere cozied up next to a warm fire. When I get there I’ll be sure to let you guys know! lol

Final Thoughts:

Listen you guys, if you’ve read this far and you still haven’t bought this pattern and started sewing along with me, what are you waiting for? Once you put this dress on you’re sure to turn heads and get major compliments. The best part is that you can tell people, “I made it myself!” Until next time stay warm and happy sewing!

Fabric Choices:

No surprise here, I got my baby pink cable knit from Gail K. Fabrics in Atlanta. Alternatively you could use; bamboo knit, fleece, ITY, modal or sweater knit. If you want to sew up this dress, be sure to check out my sew-along!
