A little bit about the Elliot top: 🖤 deep v neckline; 🖤 short puffy sleeves; 🖤 two channels that go below your chest which gives it a gathered effect all around. The seam allowance is included in the pattern and it's 1 cm. After purchasing, you will receive a link to download and print this digital pattern in tiled A4 size. The pattern is currently available in the sizes S, M and L. I’m aware of how not size inclusive it is but I’m still learning about grading for bigger sizes so please bare with me! There’s a video tutorial available: https://youtu.be/L2ooNo3Abc4 This pattern is easily hackable by making the sleeves longer, or just adding length to the hem, creating a longer top or even a dress! If you’re curious about the name, Elliot is my first cat (I say first because I won’t be stopping at one like the true cat lady I am) and I thought it would be a cute homage by giving his name to my first pattern 🥰 This is my first pattern and I’ve put it out for free but if you’d like to support me just name your price. Once you checkout the link to the pattern will be sent to your email so you can download, print it and get to sewing! *for personal use only. *this is a digital pattern so you won't be receiving a physical copy of it.
