This top is Burda 09/2012, 123A pattern. Love the shoulder appliqus, the length and, at long last, sleeves that are long enough for my monkey arms!
The back slit is not needed if you are going to sew this in a knit.
And I would also add some bust darts, if I was to sew this one again
I added the stars, because I thought they would be a nice touch, now I´m in love with them!
