This is the second time I’ve made this pattern – Advance 7701 from the 1950’s. It’s a simple wrap top with kimono sleeves and is pretty easy to sew – it has just three pattern pieces! I made it with a blue-grey wool mix fabric which is really cosy and warm, I love it. More pics and information on my blog

Thank you, that’s so kind. Another blogger has designed a wrap top pattern based on this very vintage pattern. It’s available on Craftsy if you’re interested: ttp://www.craftsy.com/pattern/sewing/Clothing/Kimono-Wrap-Top—Draped-Cardigan/4803
