The essential Back to School wardrobe sewing patterns
Since we have to start thinking about back to school, we suggest approaching it from an angle you love: sewing! It is indeed time to start thinking about the children's back-to-school wardrobe. Focus on timeless, mixed, simple, and basic patterns that will allow you to dress them all year long. Whether it's for school or daycare, you should be able to find what you're looking for in our selection.
Don't forget that our #ikateedefirentree2022 sewing challenge is underway! You can participate on Instagram, with 3 vouchers of 50€ to win. Here is some inspiration to participate before September 7, 2022.

Sportswear
Charlie sweatshirt in a waffle fabric and sherpa lining for the hood
Vancouver sweatshirt and Charlie sweatshirt in fleece
For back-to-school or summer, the Vancouver sweater pattern adapts to all seasons thanks to its different options. In a sleeveless version with trendy shoulder pads, it will particularly appeal to teenage girls. With a hood and nicely puffed sleeves, it will keep them warm in the middle of winter. And because we also like to sew for ourselves at the beginning of the school year, the Vancouver pattern also exists for women. As for the Charlie sweatshirt pattern, it's a must-have! A hoodie with a button placket at the shoulder is perfect for the cooler seasons.
