Date: 2/20/13 8:28 PM Hi everyone!
Can anyone recommend a slightly peasant-style
RAGLAN sleeve pattern for knits that would be feminine and summery, but not too billowy?
I'll be making them out of 11 oz. rayon jersey.
Thank you in advance for your helpful suggestions!!! |

I have in mind something with a bit more peasant detailing. Maybe some more shirring at neck (e.g. with drawstring), etc. I don't know if such a pattern exists for knits? |

Date: 2/21/13 0:00 AM When I think of peasant tops I think of New Look. Here are two I found on a quick look. 6110 has a peasant crossed with henley vibe but is intended for knits. 6892 is for wovens but you could probably use it one size down. -- Edited on 2/21/13 0:00 AM -- ------ I've moved!

I think New Look 6892 would give me the look I'm going for! And there's lots of reviews here as well.  |
