The Ollie is designed for comfort and ease and the snap front closure makes it easy to take on and off. While originally designed for a cozy sweatshirt knit fabric, this pattern will take on a seasonless work-wear vibe if created in a medium weight woven or twill.
The process of sewing the Ollie will incorporate seams, turned hems, a large collar, in-seam pockets and a front henley placket.
Difficulty: Intermediate
Fabric: woven or low stretch knit fabrics depending on how you plan to wear it. For a cozy relaxation piece, make this garment in a sweatshirt knit or fleece fabric. For a season-less garment consider a medium weight cotton or linen.
