SUITABLE FABRICS


 Apollo works best on heavy and medium weight knits with a low stretch percentage such as sweatshirt. Such fabrics will hold the collar and the sleeve in shape.
Knit fabrics such as French terry and Ponte Roma have more drape and the collar will have a more slouchy look. For fabrics with more drape, you may consider sizing down.

Very Stylish Sweatshirt - LOVE!

I love how the sweatshirt turned out. I’m 5’4” so I decided to add 1” to the body of the sweatshirt as I didn’t want it too short and I could always trim at the hem if I chose before hemming. I didn’t add any length to the arms. LOVE it! I made it exactly the same as Bella and I’ve worn it multiple times these first two weeks. It really is a step up in the sweatshirt realm. I would love to try it with another fabric that has enough body to support the collar and sleeves. .

Very well drafted, instructions are very detailed, easy sew, but with the extra details that really make the garment.

Stylish Sweatshirt!

Another fantastic pattern from Bella! I read the instructions first, checked measurements and downloaded a 12 from the PDF format. Fit was spot on, no adjustments needed. I am 5ft 2in and the version for my height worked perfectly. I shamelessly copied Bella's styling and made my Apollo in red sweatshirt fabric, to wear with black jeans and trousers. The structural sleeves and funnel neck really elevate this sweatshirt into work/weekend day wear. Detailed instructions with photos which are easy to follow. I have learnt that Bella's patterns can deliver a tailored finish, if they are followed carefully! I used a sewing machine and zig zag stitch to finish the hems, as I don't have an overlocker. I am really pleased with the sweater and will definitely make another. Great pattern!
