A Beginner’s Guide to Sewing with Knitted Fabrics by Wendy Ward – book review

Several months ago I was asked to be part of a promotional book tour for Wendy Ward’s new book ‘A Beginner’s Guide to Sewing with Knitted Fabrics’, in conjunction with Minerva Crafts.  I was sent the book free of charge, and allowed to choose the fabric for a sewing pattern from the book, in exchange for a review blog post on Minerva’s website.

The garment I chose to make was the ‘Peak tshirt’, extended into a knee-length dress, with an elasticated waist, very much like the one pictured on the front cover of the book.  I chose some stripy metallic jersey from Minerva.

You can read the full review, and see more pictures, over on Minerva’s blog here.
