Scientific Seamstress multilayer raglan

These patterns are very well put made with instructions suitable for a novice or expert. I bought the pdf e-pattern from Crafty-Mamas for our Wednesday forum sew-a-long. I even got the coverlock to play long - mostly nicely. Jeri will get to try it on when he gets home from school. 
The red fabric is a 100% combed cotton, soft and strong. The stripes are a cotton blend I picked up secondhand. I made a complete double layer so it will be nice and warm this Winter. Even on the days that Jeri doesn't feel the cold and won't wear a jumper.
The pattern has lots of option features to choose from and it is easy to make the adjustments. I will definitely try more of these patterns. They are good value too.

And a rear view.

Demolition and waste.

It makes me mad and sad to see the resources wasted when houses around us are trashed.
So little that could have been reclaimed and reused was saved and was splintered and destroyed by the big Cat's jaws.
I'll have the latest pic in the morning.
