This is a colorful ebook to teach people how they can go about making their own Katwise style Elf Coat. This listing is for a DIGITAL FILE available for Instant Download. This is not a listing for an actual sweater. If you want one of my sweater creations, please read below for details. Katwise sweaters have inspired quite a little trend here on Etsy. These sweaters are an extension of my charmed and colorful life, and I feel so blessed to be able to share it. Thank you! :-) ************************************************************* FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS....Kindly read these before emailing me! Thanks! ************************************************************* Q. HOW DO I GET AN ACTUAL SWEATER MADE BY YOU? A. I still sell tons of sweaters every month. See my shop announcement or facebook for the date of my next sale. My sales are all first come, first serve. No reserves or custom orders. I make all sizes, from XS to XXXL, in every imaginable color combination, so there will be lots to choose from. You can “like” Katwise on Facebook to get a sneak peek at the upcoming sweaters. https://www.facebook.com/sweaterkat Please add my shop to your etsy Favorites so you can come back and visit. Many other shops started using my name to attract customers, but I am the only official Katwise, so don't get confused. :-) Q.WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ALL YOUR TUTORIALS? A. Despite the many different photos, I sell just three types of tutorials.You can tell them apart by the price. This listing is for my classic long Elf Coat Guide. You can get my Hoodie Guide here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/75596038/katwise-hoodie-guide-tutorial-ebook-make? You can get my Arm Warmer Guide here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/88143111/arm-warmer-tutorial-diy-guide You can get all three of my tutorials together for a 20% discount here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/102053333/all-3-katwise-ebooks-the-complete? Q.WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE TUTORIAL?: A.I worked hard to make Sweater guide really bright and fun. This ebook includes 72 pages of color photos, diagrams, anecdotes and sweater secrets. I have tried to make it engaging and inexpensive enough that, even if you are not sure you can sew, you still might enjoy the read. **THIS IS NOT A FORMAL PATTERN WITH PRECISE MEASUREMENTS. Patterns will not work well with one of a kind, upcycled garments. (*trust me!*) This is a picturesque journey through making a sweater which will give you the techniques you need to make one in the size and style that suits your spirit. In addition to the beautifully detailed PDF, anyone who purchases this is invited to participate in an online discussion, where there are friendly folks ready to any questions you have along the way. Free tech support from me and your fellow sweater artists! Q.WHAT MATERIALS DO I NEED?: A. *A serger *4 Spools overlock thread *Approx 20 Sweaters (Choosing the right sweaters is an art unto itself, and I will walk you through this process) *Sense of humor Q. WHAT IF I DO NOT HAVE A SERGER? A. Although sergers make this a much easier project, you can still make it with a zig zag stitch or sew by hand. Q. IS THIS SUITABLE FOR A BEGINNER? A. Learning to sew with sweaters has a lot of tricks (which I try to share!). This project is best suited for people who have experience sewing with a serger, but beginners are encouraged to follow their bliss and give it a try too! I have been impressed by the lovely creations folks have made! Have a look at my feedback for all the sweet things people have been saying about the tutorial. It warms my heart! If you look on my facebook page, you can see dozens of photos of creations that others have made with my tutorials: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151854421261532.1073741859.320233446531&type=3 Q. CAN I USE THIS PATTERN FOR PLUS SIZED/CHILD SIZE/MENS SWEATER? A. Yes! With a little cleverness this pattern can be easily adapted to all sizes. The sky is the limit! Q.IS THIS AN ACTUAL BOOK? CAN I PRINT IT? A.This is an ebook download, so you will not be getting anything in your mailbox. It is many colorful pages, so it might be a bit expensive to print out, but you are welcome to do so. You might want to try printing it greyscale to save a small fortune in ink. Q. DO YOU MIND IF I SELL THE SWEATERS I MAKE WITH THIS PATTERN? A.People who purchase this pattern have my blessing to sell this design in small quantities. I just ask that you give my shop a shout out in your listing, and be kind. ************************************************************* THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT! (and reading this far!)
