Wren Fleece

Wren Fleece

Rated 5.0 out of 5 stars

The Wren was designed with ease and shape in mind. It's relaxed, voluminous and intentionally oversized. The exaggerated yoke adds a bit of architectural interest. The kind of detail that makes this not your average crewneck. The sleeves are slightly cropped and full thanks to the deep box pleats, a statement without shouting. This a solid tried and true you will make many of.

    Wren Fleece

    This is a fantastic pattern a little on the larger size so had to adjust for my size and also had to lengthen given my height. I have made it in beautiful merino 100% wool I made three!! Love the fact it is so quick to make well done I am a forever fan of Daughter Judy

    An absolute autumn must-have

    Staple piece in my wardrobe already! I would just appreciate if the pattern had SA 0.7 cm, since it is mostly sewn on OL. Other than that I am super-happy with it :-)

    Wren Fleece - a great addition to my casual wardrobe

    The wren fleece was really easy to put together, all pattern pieces fitted exactly and the finished result did not disappoint. I love the rounded neck line and box pleat detail at the sleeve. These features add a really nice variation to a sweater. The sizing was my only worry - how oversized do you go? And finally I opted to cut out a size smaller, so the final sweater was generous and roomy but not excessive. I will make this again, and the only thing I might do differently is add extra to the length (about an 1 inch), the finished sweater sits high on my hips and could have been ever so slightly longer (I am 5’7” or 170cm tall).

    A joy to make

    I cut my fabric and made up the Wren easily in a day. I very much enjoyed sewing the top. It is a cool design and I will definitely use the pattern again in other fabrics, a thicker fleece and maybe even be brave a try a non- stretch - I think it would show the pattern off well.

    Cosy Chic

    I love this pattern so much - good instructions, superb fit, and unique design. I used a medium weight, less structured cotton fleece, sized down, and it came out beautifully. I feel so happy wearing it and can't wait to make more Daughter Judy patterns, I just can't decide which one!
