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 is a solid tried and true you will make many of.

    Love it!

    Great basic sweater that has been given a bit of pizzzaz so it is also not so basic. I will definitely be making more of these 😁

    Love it!

    Pattern is a smasher. Easy to put together, great instructions and the result is👌. I’ve made two in a week and have plans for a third.

    Clear pattern with easy to follow instructions

    I have made this pattern once so far in a sweat-shirting material. My second one will be in a merino jacquard.

    I made the size according to my bust measurement and it is baggy. The sleeves are not bracelet length on me, which is pleasing but the neck is tight. If your fabric does not have the recommended amount of stretch, you may need to lengthen the neck pieces.

    The GOAT

    I've made eight versions of the Wren sweatshirt - two for myself and six that I am giving away as gifts this holiday season. I've used midweight fleece and French terry, and both worked beautifully. If you are looking for a go-to pattern to create apparel for others, this is a wonderful choice. The design is so special - modern and architectural, yet oversized, so there is less concern about picking the right size. The instructions are fantastic (as all Daughter Judy patterns are), and it is a quick sew (cut to complete in an afternoon). The Wren is not only my favorite knit pattern, but it's probably my favorite pattern, FULL STOP.
