   I loved making this, it was quick and easy to make and looks stylish. I made it in a lightweight double faced wool which I needed to overlock around the edge because the 2 layers were separating. An interesting design and attractive but a surprise to find it was an unfinished edge

   I made this out of a washable merino wool interlock. The instructions are very clear and it is quite easy to assemble. It is a fun design, and it drapes very nicely. I liked it so much I made it a second time for a friend.

   This is an easy interesting top. I made mine in a very soft poly-fleece with stretchy petersham silver trim. A very cozy throw on warmer.

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.
