Customer Questions and Answers
Hi! I'm having trouble finding the pattern itself - when I click on "download" it opens a six page PDF, but not the printable pattern. Am I missing something?
Please open the pattern in Adobe Acrobat Reader, then check the pattern 'attachments'. The pattern files are located there. If you need more help please see our Help Center tutorials or email our helpful staff.
The annoyance of downloading this pattern here and then having to search for a blog for the tutorial and then download that is too much. Please make everything available together, there is no point to add the pattern pieces as an attachment on the pdf where the original pdf has no sewing instructions.
Hello, Thank you for your feedback. In order to offer so many patterns for free, we had to keep the download size down. This is why we have kept the instructions over on our blog. Additionally, this has made it easier to constantly update and perfect these instructions without making any previous downloads stuck with errors. If you woudl prefer a pattern with an instruction booklet, we have a range of premium patterns you can purchase :)
Pattern description says sizes to 28/30 are included, but pattern says only to 20/22.
Hello, Thanks for picking up this error. The pattern does only go up to a size 20/22.
I am a beginner and tried this free pattern. I absolutely love the fit. Sometimes raglan sleeves aren't fitting well on wider shoulders resulting in collard that is too wide. This is perfect, easy and quick to make. Enjoy!
Thank you for this lovely pattern. I can't wait to make it!
Love this pattern! Super simple. Made up a couple! But DO make a muslin/practice piece first to identify any tweaks you need to make to fit your body. After making a muslin, I decided to: 1. Omit the pleats on the back so the neck is less snug, 2. Change sleeves to be a bit longer (to elbow) without cuffs, and 3. Increase bust by 1/2" on each side (total of 2") and hip 1" on each side (total of 4"), drawing a slanted line between the two points. Worked out perfectly for me!
I modified the heck out of this pattern so I could use up a smaller remnant of 1Lo19 Apricot medium weight. The pattern was super easy and lent itself gracefully to modification. I lengthened the sleeves by piecing, left the shirt longer because I hate crop tops, used 2 pieces in front instead of one and changed the neckline. I am super excited about how I will modify this next time. Thank you!
