Ellie & Mac Around the Block Hoodie

It's Wacky Wednesday at Ellie & Mac. This week I'm featuring the Around the Block Hoodie. I've been wanting to make this pattern ever since I saw Sharon's (Sweet Mama Life) that she made during testing.


The color blocking on the Around the Block Hoodie is so fun! It's perfect for using scraps. My printed portions are french terry scraps that I got from Sharon. We love passing scraps back & forth.


The pattern includes pockets which are nice and roomy.


I love the offset drawstring on the hood. The pattern calls for faux drawstrings, but I wanted a real one.


My Around the Block Hoodie is all french terry. All my french terry came from the Dallas Fabric District. The only piece that was not a scrap was the navy blue. I previously made pants with the burgundy at the top.


I'm not a big fan of hoodies. I did wear this hoodie almost all day earlier this week while I was volunteering to take photos at a historic house in McKinney, Texas for their website. I was surprised at how comfortable it was. But I am tempted to take the hood off and replace it with a cowl.
