This great asymmetrical top is perfect with matching cargo pocket pant and elastic ankles. Lovely in a jersey knit or cotton/linen fabrics.
We chose knit here with linen pocket and ankle trim.
The pattern includes sizes from XS to 2X.
This is a wide top with slightly narrow sleeves. Knit has stretch so a narrow sleeve is safe; however if you are using a woven fabric be sure to measure the pattern sleeve width to ensure you have enough ease. It’s easy to go up a size in sleeve and keep the body at a smaller size. Check the neckline for yourself, it is cut so it is the same at back and front - and is quite open as shown.
Pants are wide, slightly lower crotch and cut in one leg panels. The pocket is suggested in linen if using a light weight knit, use a light cotton or linen for the pocket so the leg is not weighed down.
This combination pattern can be made up in Jersey Knit or a cotton or linen woven. Just verify the sleeve widths for both fabrics. Top is stitched with front diagonal line either on the outside with raw edges showing, or a traditional finished seam and top-sewn. Pant pocket is easy to do and offers a lovely unexpected detail. Especially in a knit pant. Can you say COMFORTABLE?
