   I have recently made this pattern up and am happy with the result although I must say the instructions for the twist are not easy to follow and did require several attempts. I complicated it by using a printed linen which was printed on one side only so I did actually change how I did the twist in order to get it to look something similar to how it was intended and not show the wrong side of the fabric. I also replaced the arm binding with a facing as my fabric was a very loosely woven linen. So yes this pattern did take a few attempts to get it looking something like it should and was a little frustrating but I persevered and am very happy with the final result.

   This is the first disappointing pattern from Style arc. I found the instructions for the twist difficult to follow and required many efforts and much patience to get it looking like I think it should have been. I succeeded eventually. However, when I tacked up the garment to check for fit it did not look like the semi fitted garment in the image. It looked shapeless and baggy despite the tuck and I put both pattern and fabric in the bin. It was the correct size but it just wasn’t for me.

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

1. When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
2. Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
3. When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
4. You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:

A. Shoulder Breadth

Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.

B. Upper Arm Girth

This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.

C. Bust

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.

D. Waist

This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.

E. Hip

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
