    Thanks so much! I didn’t have time to buy or draft a pattern for this it was kind of made on a whim. I took a top and turned it inside out and I laid it out on the fabric to use as a guide. Then I chalked out the shape I wanted for the front and back. All that was left was to I cut out strips for the neck, cuff and waist and then sew er up. Its a pretty quick and easy method for simple clothes :) I wouldn’t try this out on complicated garments though, patterns are the way to go.

    Have you heard of the label Wilt? Very much like their style. Looks like the perfect pullover top for extra style on a slightly cool spring day :)

      I didn’t really use a pattern i just took a top and turned it inside out and I laid it out on the fabric to use as a guide. Then I chalked out the shape I wanted for the front and back. All that was left was to I cut out strips for the neck, cuff and waist and then sew er up.
