In autumn, winter and early spring with jeans, joggers or a skirt.
For weekends and travel, over a T-shirt or under a coat.

Key Design Features

Silhouette: Loose through the body, gathered in at the hips by the hem band.

Length: Hip length.

Neckline: Round crew neck with a folded band, stitched into a ring and set in with slight stretching.

Sleeves: Long raglan sleeves, gathered along the front and back raglan seams from a mark up to the neckline, which gives the puffed shoulder. The sleeve hem is gathered into a folded cuff.

Front: One piece cut on the fold.

Back: One piece cut on the fold.

Finishing: Sleeve and side seams stitched in one pass; folded hem band stitched into a ring with its seam placed under the left side seam and attached with slight stretching.

Level Of Difficulty

Beginner. Few pieces and no fastenings; the techniques are gathering on knit fabric, raglan seams and attaching folded bands with even stretching.

Fabric Recommendations

Low-stretch knit fabric made from natural or blended fibres for the body and sleeves; rib knit or high-stretch knit for the neckband, cuffs and hem band.

Additional Supplies

Rib knit or high-stretch knit fabric for the bands

Cutter's Must

If the patterns have a double contour, they include seam allowances. If the contour is single, the patterns do not include seam allowances. Seam allowances: All seams - 1 cm. Attention! First, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can be from 90cm to 150cm) to determine how much material you will need (don't forget to account for paired and symmetrical pieces).

From main fabric:
- Back - 1 piece on fold
- Front – 1 piece on fold
- Sleeve — 2 pieces
From main fabric 1:
- Bottom facing – 1 piece on fold
- Cuff – 2 pieces
- Neckline facing – 1 piece
