  1. Gaynor

    Fabulous

  2. Janet

    The pattern was easy to download and print and put together. Easy to follow instructions and easy fitting instructions. I did find that although it fit me well it gaped at the crossover in the front and had to stitch it so it would stay closed.

  3. Claire

    Never have any complaints about your patterns. Well drafted and well fitting.

  4. Anonymous

    Love the style and fit ..clear instruction ..

  5. Nancy

    Love the look of this pattern but I have yet to complete it. So far great instructions

  6. Rina

    Stunning and excellent instructions

  7. Dr B Hattaway

    This is my first Itch to Stitch make and I absolutely love it! Beautifully designed top with exceptionally clear instructions. I was between sizes but went with my bust measurement which worked really well. My waist was the size above but the waist has plenty of ease and it fits really well. Now I know how well the patterns are drafted and how good the instructions are, I will take on some more challenging projects from Itch to Stitch.

  8. Laura

    Steps for construction were very easy to follow. Sizing was as expected without alterations for my measurements. I love the final results!

  9. Daniel

    Pretty simple pattern, easy to follow and assemble

  10. Leanne

    Love it !! Easy pattern to follow – I added top stitching to neckband , and omitted cutting 2 neckbands and 2 waistbands by cutting on fold … apart from that – super easy .. lovely fit !!

  11. onesimpleinspiration

    I purchased this pattern a little while ago and just now made it…I am totally in love with it! It’s quick, easy and awesome results! I will be making a few more versions of this top!!

    I love this pattern, every lightweight-midweight jersey suits this pattern, I even tried it in a lightweight scuba. the neck band is neat and stylish, it was quick to make

  13. kelly

    Love the style of this top, made in Double brushed poly, nice drape, a fraction big through the bust, next time I will size down from bust and grade to hips (and this may just be due to fabric choice) I found it a little short in length, so plan to take off the band and double the width and it will be fine. Otherwise really like this one and will be making another.

  14. carolgleason

    I love this pattern!! The instructions were very clear and thorough. Because I am only 5’2″, I shortened the length 1″ at the lengthen/shorten lines as directed in the pattern. By doing so it brought up the cross over at the neck, and I don’t need to wear a layering piece underneath.
    I will be making more of these soon.

How to choose your size

  1. Compare your bust circumference (fullest part) to the “Body Measurements” table, choose the size that best fits your bust. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
  2. Compare your waist circumference (narrowest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that best fits your waist. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
  3. Compare your hip circumference (widest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that fits your hip best. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
  4. It’s OK to use different sizes for the bust, waist and hip. The instructions for blending sizes are included in the pattern.
  5. If you are taller or shorter than 5’6” (168 cm), you should consider lengthening or shortening the garment. The instructions for lengthening or shortening are included in the pattern.
