• Go up a size to add more slouch to your sweater. Just make sure the neckband fits well around your neck and adjust if necessary.
• Choose a lighter-weight fabric like french terry in your usual size to get a roomier feel.
• Include a high split hem to show your jeans/pants underneath, it’ll give some shape to your look!

Jarrah is such a great basic pattern, there are so many ways to make it your own and add little details to customise it.

• Create an extremely high split hem and wear a contrasting colour underneath or leave it bare.
• Thicker bands at the wrist and base of the sweater or combining a split hem with a thick ribbed band at the base give the sweater a different look.
• Add a pocket on the front for a fun detail.
• Extend the length to make a sweater dress!

Adding a funnel neck is such a fun way to make your sweater even cosier. Play around with the length & width of the funnel to see if you can create different looks.

• Shorten your Jarrah to create a cute cropped version and wear it with high-waisted jeans, skirts or even shorts and sneakers!
• Add in a flared or balloon sleeve to balance out the short sweater.
• Create a cropped sweater with a large band at the base to give the illusion of a crop without baring the midriff.

The beautiful thing about the Jarrah pattern is it can be just as easily dressed up for a more glamorous fancy look. Pair with a lightweight flowy skirt and heels for a feminine look or a structured pencil skirt for a work day.
