Burda Style For people who sew
Description
The sleeves drafted to go with this top are designed to be long and scrunchy; I think the note says 3 inches longer than wrist length(?). Anyway, long long sleeves + raglan style = a lot of fabric. I had about 1.5 yards, and decided to make 3/4 length sleeves since it is almost spring anyway.
Also, I think it is drafted to be tunic length; I cut a good 2-3 inches off the length.

Love the colour, my next one will also be 3/4 sleeve, and I agree with the length of the top, I chopped loads off the first one I made for my daughter.

Thanks! I’m pretty happy with the way it turned out, especially since I just eyeballed the sleeve length : )
