Description

This top was SOOO easy to make.. I made it up on the spot, folding a piece of fabric in half, cutting a wide neck, attaching a large rectangle to the neck, adding a few buttons, and sewing the sides basically.. and as we say in Australia " bob’s your uncle" ( translation “all done” )
The tights are from the Shelby website. A free download called Vuokatti tights (thanks for the link emmastaf), and they turned out great.. I made them longer in the leg and at the top. Unfortunately my fabric wasnt way streachy, so they are VERY tight.. I recommend going a size bigger unless your making them out of lycra or powerstreach…

Material Notes

Soft woollen fabric stretch cotton for tights

      thanks! I have put a how to on the “flower power top”, which is the same pattern as this one, only make the collar wider. This was bout 40 cm to start with in width, and then folded in half, to end up about 20.
      Good luck! I look forward to seeing the result :)
