I’m having a blast sewing up my first indie pattern that I had to buy after seeing Hila’s version in mustard ponte!
So far, it has been smooth sailing and the striped double knit feels fantastic on (best fabric purchase ever??).
Unfortunately, I have to put it aside to study for a final tomorrow, so meanwhile… I need some help!
Black (top) or striped (bottom right) shawl collar??
Wear the Ducky Tie 
Black!
& good luck with your final!
Thanks so much sewsincity!
I really like it with the black. I’m going to have to buy this pattern!
Thanks Beth! Haha hope you do, it’s definitely worth the price 🙂
Black collar! So excited for this pattern. It’s on my list to make.
Thanks! Can’t wait to see your version!
The striped collar would make the blazer look like a vest from afar; I think black makes it more coherent and sophisticated, and the contrast would bring out the shape a bit more. Just my opinion though. Good luck for finals, I’m amazed how you can sew the day before an exam, so organised!
Thanks sil! I was really leaning towards white at first, but the bit about the blazer looking like a vest made me reconsider, and I’m glad because the black is growing on me. Haha, I wasn’t sewing the day before the exam, I was sewing over the weekend and just posted it the day before.
The night before i had exams were the times I procrastinated the most, haha! Hope you did well in the finals, now you have more time to sew, yay! Looking forward to your finished blazer whatever your collar choice is 🙂
This looks awesome! Love your stripe and solid mix. The solid black looks great!
Thank you!
i really love the black collar! i am soooo loving everyones blazers that i see!
Thanks Britney! Me too, so fun to follow and see the different variations!
I’m thinking about making this blazer even more now cause at my new job it’s usually chilly!
That’s true! The plus side of blazers, you can wear them when it’s chilly outside but also when it’s hot outside but cold inside. Looking forward to seeing your version 😀
So true! And I usually don’t wear blazers but the fact that this one is knot makes me sooo happy
I love the combination of black and white. I’ve seen a few of these blazers around and I’m getting envious. I’m going to have to get this pattern!!
Thanks ellegeemakes! Haha doo it! This pattern is awesome 🙂
Ugh. I like both. The black to tie in the sleeves and the stripe because i love stripes. I have to go with….. Black
Thanks frougiefashionista! You have no idea, I was secretly hoping someone would say they liked the stripes!
That’s so gorgeous! Definitely black!
Thank you!
Black. I love the contrast! Good luck with exams!
Thanks Linda! 🙂
Black. Suck a cute jacket!
Thank you!
Such a cute jacket. I like it with black.
Thanks sewloveable!
I like both but I think the black just gives it the edge. This is a great pattern – I really liked Hila’s version too and I think I must give it a go.
