| Just two pieces to cut and sew make this pattern a popular and versatile answer to the knit top and sweater wardrobe for the men in the family. Try it with a crew neck, turtleneck, or buttons down the front. Pattern number 100 was designed especially for knit and stretch fabrics. You will enjoy its versatility and the simplicity of construction. |
I must say that this 1967 Stretch and Sew pattern is just about the greatest pattern I've ever used. Four pieces. FOUR. Well, five if you add the turtle neck as I will. You also have an option of adding a ribbed knit collar should you so desire. I didn't have enough pattern paper so I traced the pattern onto parchment paper.
And then I ran out of parchment paper so I traced it onto some wax paper.
Yeah, it was a little jury rigged. Don't judge.
Next step was to round up all my reference photos and get a good last look.
Velco in the collar.
This costume is going up for auction in December. Starting bid? $4,000.
Quilted Triangle chest detail.
After that I rounded up my reference photos and discovered something that had somehow escaped me before. That gray bar on the sandman uniform doesn't go around the back. Glad I was able to figure that out. Less work for me!

I think it's hilarious how everyone in Logan's Run looks like they're eternally stuck in the 1970s even though it's a futuristic distopian film! You'd think the hairstylists would have thought to style everyone's hair in anything but a 1970s shag. Of course, this is great and makes the movie completely endearing today! Looking forward to seeing your completed Logan costume.
So, will I have to do that weird slowly spinning head thing while saying, "There Is No Sanctuary." over and over?
