 Indy Sew has launched a brand new pattern collection. This one's called the Seamly 2016 Summer Collection. Seamly is a company that produces clothing in Alley's hometown of Boulder, Colorado. And they really specialize in basic but really high quality garments. And I think that that's what all of us sewists are striving for. Alley turned three of her favorite Seamly garments into sewing patterns. And so today I'm going to review my versions of them for you. So first up, we have the wrapped cardigan. You can see that I threw my wrapped cardigan over a ready to wear dress and belted them both and just threw on some heels. For me, this is perfect for a day in the office but you could also wear this to a date night for most people, this would be just fine. The wrapped cardigan as you can see is long sleeves. It is really drapey around the neckline all the way down the center front. So if you lose the belt like I'm doing here, you can really see how billowy it is. It was a super windy day whenever we filmed this. So it's not laying exactly how it's supposed to but you can just get an idea of just how wide the cardigan is. You can also wear it a third way which is to wrap it all the way around your body, wrap a belt around it again and then it can become a dress. This obviously depends on the weight of the knit that you use. You don't want to use something too thin that you can see through or that would show all of your unflattering lumps and bumps but it could also be a dress which I think is super cool. Next up is what they're calling the basic tee but if you know me at all, you know that I'm not very basic so I couldn't just make a regular plain old T-shirt. So I took a knit gold knit for the bodice and then I actually took some eyelash lace and used that for the sleeves making this a really dolled up basic tee. The pattern itself is really just four pieces. It's the front and the back which are both cut on a fold. You have the sleeves which are mirror images of each other and then you have a neck band and you can't really tell from the video because I have this tucked in but the hem is nice and long. It comes down well past your traditional hip line for a T-shirt so you could really wear it a lot of different ways over leggings or skinny jeans or something like that. Finally, we have the valentank and the valentank is pretty much as basic as it gets. I have paired it here with just an army green vest, a silk scarf and a little mini skirt. I kind of picture wearing this to brunch or out shopping but the tank itself is like I said, very basic. You just have your simple sleeveless crew neck tank. There is an option to add a little pocket over the left breast which I think is really nice although I opted to leave it off here and you can see because I have this one tucked in as well but it also has a really long hem so if you wanted to wear this over some leggings for like a quick walk with the dog it would be totally perfect. And there you have it. Those are the three patterns featured in the new Indy Sew Seamly collaboration for their 2016 summer collection. All in all, I think these are three really great knit patterns to have in your collection. The valentank could easily be someone's very first knit project. You really get a lot of practice in installing those knit bands and really stretching them around the neckline or the arm side and then the t-shirts really wonderful too. Also great for a beginner. You'll learn how to do a set in sleeve and again more practice with a neck band. I would put the cardigan in a bit of a more advanced category simply for the facing. You'll have to do some under stitching and some edge stitching and I found that to be a little bit tricky especially with the hidden pocket but again, I think these are three really great patterns. Ali does a wonderful job in her instruction booklets, really breaking down each step, really great illustrations and making it easy for anyone to follow. In conjunction with the launch of the summer collection Indy Sew is doing a blog tour. We are the first stop as you can see and then tomorrow we'll be over at the Doing Things blog.
