Description
The Hot Chocolate Sweatshirt is the perfect cool weather addition to your sewing collection. Choose between three neckline options: crew (round) neck, cowl neck and hoodie. In addition, there are two pocket options: patch pockets and kanga pouch. Finally, add to that the two different lengths for the top and dress and you have a huge number of combinations!
The Hot Chocolate Sweatshirt goes from prem./small newborn right up to age 12. It is suitable for enthusiastic beginners. Medium weight knit fabrics (for example French terry or sweatshirt fleece) are perfect for this pattern.
There’s a matching adult male/straight fit pattern and adult female/curve fit pattern. On top of that, there are two teen patterns called the Hot Mocha!

Loved making this Hot Chocolate jumper for my grandchildren. I’ve made 5 so far a 3yr old and a 9yr old,all hoodies; haven’t tried the cowl version yet.

I’ve lost count of how many of these I have made using various options. My kids love them and now request which pattern option they would like. It always comes out brilliantly, pocket options are super easy even for a beginner, sizing is spot on. Fabulous as always!

Quick, simple make. All bands were well sized. The crew neck version sewed up beautifully in cotton French Terry.

Great beginner pattern, just double check that you out the hood on the right way around. I made 12 of these for Christmas gifts and they were a huge hit

This is my go to pattern, from new baby gifts (paired with the hareem trousers) to pyjamas (add the 4 seasons) I make this for everyone. I love all the options and the flexibility they bring.
We have hoodies in french terry with kanga pockets that get brought out on cold evening then they wear a lighter jersey version as pyjama tops.
The pattern is so easy to follow, with great clear instructions (and I love the adult version too, we can match 😉)

This pattern is quick and easy to make with a cute and comfy result. The instructions are clear and have helpful illustrations. I made the dress version for my 3 year old – it looked great and fitted well (I used the measurement chart to get the right width and height). Sadly my 3 year old decided shortly after I made it that she would only wear dresses with a line [seam] in the middle… so then I bought the emi dress!

I made this pattern for my daughters birthday. I love the contrasting pockets and neckband. It looked amazing and she loved wearing it. It’s perfect for those slightly cooler days.
The instructions were fantastic and it sewed up a treat. It came together really quickly

Loose fitting and straight forward – make sure you read the instructions for the hood before cutting

This is definitely my eldest sons favourite pattern. I make them bigger as he likes the way it fits, and add the thumbs up cuffs which he now insists on for any long sleeve top.

This made a great top for my little one for autumn/winter and will definitely be using it again for next year.

This pattern has been amazing for my boys. I love that the one pattern has allowed me to make many variations for my newborn and 8 year old. Simple, quick, stylish and best of all… comfy!!!
