Customer Questions and Answers
Hello F|S, where can I find the Yana pattern? I'm buying the Nora and would like the pants that you show with it as well. Thanks! Ann
F|S Team
Hello, The Yana pattern is still in production and will be released in our next collection.
My measurements fall between the 8 and 10. Which range would be best?
F|S Team
We recommend considering the finished garment measurements. You may find that because our patterns can be roomy, you may fit into the size 8 finished gament measurements easily.
Is the pants pattern the Cass cullottes free pattern? BTW The thumbnail showing the line drawings for the dress doesn't work.
F|S Team
Hello, the pants worn with the Nora pattern in the Mix natural linen are the Scarlett pattern which is in development and will be released this year. The culottes are our Yana Pattern which will be our next release :) Thanks for letting us know about the issue with the line drawings and we will fix this up.
Does this pattern have a slightly dropped shoulder line?
F|S Team
Yes, this pattern features a slightly dropped shoulder.
I used the new Nora pattern which is exactly what I've been looking for: a top with a straight unfussy 3/4 length sleeve. Modifications: lowered the front neckline 5/8" (it hit right on my collarbone) & added 4" side slits for ease in pulling off over my head & added front patch pockets borrowed from the Nora jacket. I used IC023 Jacobean Jewelry Blue/Mlt Softened and paired it with my T&T Abbey pants in IL019 Mix Natural. Both are purposely a little sloppy fit-wise because I know they'll shrink a bit more with the next few W&D cycles.
