Material
Primary Fabric Use a lightweight knit fabric with at least 75% horizontal stretch. Fabric with good drape, such as one with rayon or bamboo content, is ideal. The front cowl will drape lower if using 4-way stretch fabric and higher if using 2-way stretch fabric.
Other Material
- 42" (107 cm) of 3/8" or 1/2" (1 cm or 1.25 cm)-wide straight fusible stay tape (or you may cut your own using lightweight woven fusible interfacing on the straight grain)
Fabric Requirements
Most natural fibers shrink in the wash; be sure to have enough fabric. The requirements below assume that the fabric is already pre-shrunk.

How to choose your size
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- It’s OK to use different sizes for the bust, waist and hip. The instructions for blending sizes are included in the pattern.
- 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.

Excellent!

Classic, and beautiful! What more needs to be said. A comfy T in disguise. It looks more complicated to sew than it is. Don’t pass this by thinking it will be a challenge. I would almost classify this as an instant gratification project. Cut and sew in the evening and wear the next day.

Fantastic pattern

I made 3 Plitvice tops and they are in constant rotation during the warmer months. The drape front neckline is very flattering.
