Second attempt at fitting a sports bra

Another #brassiereathena sports bra 😎

This pattern is by @eclipse_lingerie_studio and is sized for a 80-130cm bust. (It’s also French-language only, at least for now?)

I made this from the same sports Lycra as last time, but added side pockets in sports mesh and purple band elastic.

This version is one size bigger than the previous one, but it’s still too tight at the front and upper bust. I can still wear it, but I’ll try the next size up for my next one. I’m not sure why I can never rely on my measurements for choosing a size that’s close to good – but I’ve always had issues in RTW too, so did expect fitting a me-made sports bra to require some effort. I guess my proportions must be quite different from “normal” 🤷‍♀️

Looking forward to nailing the fit on this pattern though! I want to make 5 well fitting sports bras so I can do washing just once a week.
