I didn’t think that creating a top from pattern could be so fun and versatile. I got back into sewing clothing with this beginner friendly pattern and it has been the perfect choice, so much so I have purchased the kid size and whipped up some for the granddaughter in her size. Included in the pattern there are many adult sizes and a multitude to styles to selected from making the pattern very cost efficient.

I have made 3 of these sweaters now and love them!!
Super fit, stylish and chic, very on trend. The best of the best for shapely warmth
The Going Home Sweater and dress is such an amazing staple to have in our wardrobe! 😍
Was the 1st pattern I bought about a year ago but never made it... so many more to come of these, I just love it!
Perfect to size as almost all patterns I've made so far 🥰 just as I like them to fit on my curves 😉
I made it here with the short sleeves shirt length, but there's many more versions I wanna try!
Thanks Ellie & Mac for making sewing so much fun with your fabulous patterns and ideas 💖
On peut se fier à nos tailles habituelles (Large pour ma part) Tellement facile à faire 😍
I love this pattern the sizing is fab it’s easy and looks fantastic only made it as a short sleeve T-shirt so far! But I’m planning on lots more variation in some great fabrics.
Here I made some team shirts for a ladies pairs competition.
This was my first Ellie and Mac make and I don’t think I will stop making them. So easy to make. Great variations in neckline, length and finishing. I love wearing these sweaters, so comfortable and easy to wear.
This pattern is an instant win for me. It was the first knit fabric garment (or any garment) I’d made in quite a long time, and the pattern instructions were easy to follow. I would make a FBA next time (I’m a D cup), but otherwise this pattern is pretty perfect!
I had so much fun making this pattern! I made it as a tunic length top with long sleeves and altered the front into a nursing friendly version (this was done after the picture was taken). The directions were super easy to follow and the pattern pieces printed easily. I'm excited to make another top from this pattern soon!
As all Ellie & Mac patterns are, this going home sweater and dress pattern is fab.
The instructions are easy to follow and the sizing and variety of finishes are excellent.
I have used this to make myself a dress so far but once I can buy more fabric I'll be making a cowl neck top with this pattern.
I had a cute raglan in mind and I found the Going Home sweater and decided to give it a try. I thought I had actually done something wrong because I was done before I knew it. I can’t believe how quickly this went together. I see way more in my future. The combinations are endless.
I love this top, it can be sewn up in a variety of knits, from lightweight to heavier weight knit and it all looks good. This pattern also comes with a Dress view, a neckband view, short sleeve, long sleeve and 3/4 sleeve. Super versatile.
Very Definitely will sew again, this is a TNT for me. I recommend this pattern to beginners and advanced.
Only alteration, shortened sleeve approx. 1 1/4". I chose an XL.
Fabric from Olga's Closet, in Rayon Spandex.
I bought this because it had raglan sleeves and I thought it would make perfect two tone tops like the baseball tops I had bought in the shops. I was not disappointed. I've already made one top with the standard band neckline and one cowl neck. I've many more planned.
The written pattern instructions are easy to follow, and for those who struggle with written instructions the online tutorial is excellent too.
It's definitely one of my favourite patterns.. I say one of because there are so many I simply can't stop making!
Love this pattern. This was my first clothing sewing project. It turned out super cute and fits perfect!
this is a great pattern with great instructions. so far I've made four items with it and loved each one.
Indispensable dans son dressing . Je ne m'en lasse pas sous toutes ces formes
Made 2 for myself and 1 for my mom! They are perfect!
I am in love with this going home pattern. Done two the third one on my cutting table. Thank you it is easy and cute I can wear it all season.
Très polyvalent comme patron , j'ai fait la version tunique pour ma grande et je lui en referai rapidement . Très bien expliqué
Great pattern. Easy to follow.
Sadly I need to do the fba (full bust adjust) as the neck came out really wide - when I did a bit more reading this was one of the signs that a fba is needed.
As a newbie to jersey I’m plucking up the courage to do the pattern adjustment 😊
Loved the Going home sweater pattern - made it big as I like baggy, comfy clothes and this worked out perfectly - easy to follow instructions and easy to make - a soft knit fabric so not too warm, would work from day to night as can be dressed up :D
