The Square Neck Top is a boxy dolman sleeved top with a square neckline. It is slightly cropped. It is a great beginner sewing pattern and includes pattern pieces to make the top from a knit or woven fabric!   

 

Pattern Features:

  • Easy to sew!
  • Includes pieces for making the top in a knit or a woven fabric.
  • Includes front pieces drafted for an A/B cup or a C/D cup.
  • Printed pattern includes: cute envelope, instructions booklet, and pattern in all sizes printed on tissue paper.

Recommended fabrics: 

  • KNIT VERSION: Knit fabrics with at least 20% 4-way stretch are suitable. Cotton jersey, rib knits, lightweight french terry are a few types of fabric that would be great. Generally, sturdier knits are easier to work with and drapier thinner knits are a little more difficult.

    WOVEN VERSION: The woven Square Neck top looks great in linen, cotton, rayon, silk, etc! The fabric you choose will affect how your top looks. If you choose a drapey fabric like a rayon or silk you will have more of a blouse-y look. If you choose something like linen it will have a more structured feel.

Material Requirements:

  • You may need to purchase extra yardage if your fabric has a heavy nap, is directional, striped, or has an obvious repeat.

    For all sizes you need 1/2 yard (.45 metres) interfacing.

Notions:

  • 1/2 yard (.5 metres) lightweight fusible interfacing.
  • Matching thread
  • Stretch or ballpoint needle if making the knit version

Skill: Easy - Beginner friendly

Pattern Fit:

The model wearing the white top is wearing a size XXL woven version in the A/B cup size. Her measurements placed her between sizes so we sized up for a looser fit. The fabric is a knit with less than 20% stretch so we opted for the woven pattern. She is 5'5" tall. 

The model in the yellow top is wearing a size 4X knit version in the C/D cup size. Her measurements place her at exactly a 4X. She is 6' tall. The top length was not modified. 

The model in the blue top is wearing a size small woven version in the C/D cup size. Her bust measurements place her in a medium and her waist and hips are in the small range. She is 5'6" tall.
