This is a free sewing pattern for a hoodie with a front open zipper, designed with seam allowances included for beginners.
The pattern is made for cosplay costumes, so it has an unlined construction. If you want to make a hoodie for everyday wear, please draft an additional lining pattern, subtracting the facing parts.
The included pocket design is a simple type. If you prefer a pouch pocket or other styles, prepare a separate pocket pattern such as pocket bags.
Since this hoodie is unlined, finish the armhole seams with self-made bias tape for a neat and durable result.
After printing, align the pages along the join lines, cut, and use the pattern as it already includes seam allowances.
The production process is explained with translation software.
