YOU WILL NEED
* 70x127cm striped bath towel
* Matching sewing thread
* Rotary cutter, quilting ruler and cutting mat
NOTE Take 1.5cm seam allowances throughout.
Our snug beach hoodie is made from a single towel, cut into six pieces (see diagram for cutting instructions), and makes use of the towel's original edging. The measurements we've given fit a two-to-three-year-old, so adjust accordingly and buy more towels if you're making for older children. As towelling frays, run a quick zigzag stitch around the cut edges of all the pieces, to make it easier to work with.
