I was instantly drawn to this pattern with it’s flattering neckline and beautiful waterfall pleat. So elegant. It was the perfect project to test out my new overlocker and use up some buttery soft navy bamboo jersey from my stash. Construction deets as well as some hints and tips on sewing knits can be found on my blog http://coutureacademic.wordpress.com/2013/03/09/sewing-with-knits/
