It was my first time sewing knits and they turned out great. I've seen this pattern but passed on it. Your review has changed my mind. :) Especially now that I know knits aren't as intimidating as I thought.Tracy https://www.blogger.com/profile/12813467591638697012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5326506316908891143.post-43413259856961868312014-12-15T12:59:46.893-04:002014-12-15T12:59:46.893-04:00I have both of those patterns, but haven't tri...I have both of those patterns, but haven't tried them yet.

Very nice! As far as how hard this pattern is...well...I am of the mind that if you really want to do something, you can put your mind to it and it will be done. Take your time, follow the instructions and be confident! I have VERY limited experience sewing knits as you can see here on my blog and I went ahead with this project and feel it was successful. I recommend using a stable knit... my next one will be in a scuba knit I think. Good luck with yours and let me know how it turns out or keep in touch if you have anymore questions.Margohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071790369699996005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5326506316908891143.post-5527211216339067202014-12-04T19:11:10.359-04:002014-12-04T19:11:10.359-04:00I was hoping it would make me run faster...but no ...I was hoping it would make me run faster...but no such luck!Margohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071790369699996005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5326506316908891143.post-90072780339202637122014-12-04T12:24:41.137-04:002014-12-04T12:24:41.137-04:00This running gear is absolutely fantastic!

Two questions: Do you need a serger to make this or can it all be done on the sewing machine (I'm getting a serger for my combined Christmas/birthday present soon though!!!!!)? And would you say that this requires you to be at an intermediate, advanced or off-the-scale extremely advanced sewing level? (I'm worried I'll be out of my depth!)
