This is a multi-size PDF pattern including sizes UK 6 – 18 or UK 20-28. This PDF gives you the tiled (A4 pages, compatible with US printer paper) and A0 (36 x 48" pages) versions as well as a separate PDF file for instructions.
If you would like Lakes Makerie in-house AO printing ($3/page x 2), select the desired variant. If you opt for our in-house printing we will ship your patterns or hold them at the shop per your order.
We would suggest using the following fabrics – medium weight dress weight wovens, cotton sanded twill, 6-9oz denim, linen, corduroy, tencel, tencel/linen. The more structured the fabric the more sculptural your top/dress will look. If you are using a heavier fabric you may want to use a lighter weight cloth for the under collar and front facings, to reduce bulk.
You will need 2 x 14 – 15mm buttons
