I call it easy breezy as that's what it is to wear.
I decided to do the bands as per the instructions and turn them over to create a binding rather than just use them as a little cuff. Mine ended up a bit thicker than they should have been (i'm never sure if the bands in burda patterns include seam allowances or not). THen when I tried to sew them down with my double needle it kept skipping stitches. I tried a couple of times, then resorted to a ballpoint needle with a slight zig zag stitch. It worked.
Its lovely and cool to wear and the length and big band make it more interesting.
It was also a perfect use for the fine cotton jersey that I picked up in the op shop a year or so ago. This pattern was the one.
yey.
