Pocket pattern for the Brady sweatshirt from Instinct Couture (size 32 to 52)

Brady is a sweatshirt with a bold style featuring its zipped truck driver neckline and its rounded panel, which bring originality and femininity. The raglan sleeves and the ease of the model ensure optimal comfort. The pattern offers several variations: a classic truck driver collar, a maxi version for a draped effect on the shoulders, or a lined hood for a sporty style. Two zip lengths are available: a short zip, which stops at the rounded panel, or a long zip going down to the bottom, reserved for more experienced sewists. For clean finishes, the neckline is lined. For the bottom of the sweatshirt and sleeves, choose a simple hem , an elastic casing for a modern look, or ribbing for a sporty touch!

The Brady Sweatshirt should be sewn in a medium to heavy weight stretch fabric. Ideally, it should have about 20% elasticity. Choose fleece, loopback sweatshirt fabric, French Terry, or a soft and thick knit.
You can play with colors and materials by sewing the different panels in contrasting fabrics or sew a solid version. For the panels, you can opt for fleece, minky, velvet, or even sequins!

The panels are lined; you can line them with the outer fabric or jersey, for example.

For the "long zip" version, the center front pieces are also lined.
