Sleeves: Sleeveless, with bound armholes.

Closure: A short opening at the top of the centre back seam, fastened with a small button and a thread loop; hook-and-eye tape at the crotch.

Back: Two pieces with a centre back seam running through the body and the lace yoke; the back yoke has a straight lower edge.

Legs: Lace bands along the leg openings at the front and back: the bound leg edges are topstitched onto the lace, and the outer edges of the lace are bound as well.

Level Of Difficulty

Intermediate. Binding stretch edges, lapping bound edges over lace, setting hook-and-eye tape and making a thread loop.
