Simplicity 8982 - pattern review and sew along

Pattern Description:
Knit top with gathered sleeves and larger cuffs


Pattern Sizing:
6-22. I made the size 22 on the top but used the 18 cuff size as I wanted them tighter around my wrists.


Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes


Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes they were straight forward and easy to follow.


What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I like the style, it’s easy and quick. Dislikes none.


Fabric Used:
Cotton jersey in a beautiful ochre color.


Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
Just the change in the cuffs so it was more gathered around my wrists / lower arm and lengthened the bodice about one inch.


Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Yes I can see myself making this pattern again and again in prints and other colors.


Conclusion:
I’ve been wanting some easy basics in my winter easy to sew lineup.
