Cotton Stretch Jersey Stand Collar Scoop Neck Top with Sleeve Options

A women's hip-length top for knit fabric with a scoop front neckline and a separate tube collar: a double stand collar sewn into a ring and attached only to the back neckline, so it stands around the neck above the open scoop. Set-in sleeves in three lengths. The photos show one sleeve length. The pattern has one full-length sleeve; for a short or three-quarter sleeve, shorten it to the length you want.

When To Wear

In autumn and spring with jeans, trousers or skirts.
Short sleeves in summer; long sleeves under a jacket in cooler weather.

Key Design Features

Silhouette: Semi-fitted, following the body through the side seams.

Length: Hip length, straight hem.

Neckline: Scoop neckline at the front, its edge turned to the wrong side and topstitched.

Collar: One piece sewn into a ring, folded double and pressed, then stitched to the back neckline only. The collar seam sits at the left shoulder seam, and the free front part stands clear of the scoop. The ring must be wide enough to pass over the head.

Sleeves: One-piece set-in sleeves; choose short, three-quarter or long.

Front: One piece, no darts or seams.

Back: One piece.

Finishing: Seams sewn with a stretch or narrow zigzag stitch, overlocked and trimmed to 0.6–0.8 cm. Hem and sleeve hems turned under and topstitched with a twin needle.

Level Of Difficulty

Beginner. Five pieces and simple knit seams; the one unusual step is attaching the collar ring to the back neckline only.

Fabric Recommendations

Knit fabric with medium to high stretch, made from natural or blended fibres.

Additional Supplies

Twin needle for topstitching the hems and front neckline
