All files are PDF files that can be printed at home on Letter or A4 sized paper. Each pattern includes one file for the pattern and print-at-home pieces, and another file containing the copy shop A0 (33.1″ wide) pattern pieces. We’ve placed the pattern pieces on individual layers so you can print only the size(s) you need, saving you on paper and ink.

This patterned is designed for light to medium wight knits with 50% 4-way strech. For lighter weight fabrics with less recovery, you might want to add light weight stabilizer to the back of the Rainbow pieces to ensure they keep their shape or do not become distorted. If you place to use the applique pieces, adding a light weight fusible stabilizer to the backs will help them keep their shape while applying them. If you are using the drawstring option on the hood, you will want to make sure you have cording of your choice on hand as well as 3/8” eyelets.
