Pattern Description: Misses easy knit top with dolman sleeves, sleeveless with different necklines
Pattern Sizing: Size 6-16. I made View B in a straight 10
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes
Were the instructions easy to follow? Very easy
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I love the dolman sleeves and the waistband. I'm not real fond of how the neckline fits.
Fabric Used: A rayon blend knit in a gray color
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:<
I ended up having to cut another waistband on the crosswise grain because my fabric was only a two way stretch fabric and by cutting it on the lengthwise it had no stretch. Cutting it out on the crosswise grain worked out a lot better.
I did leave out the elastic in the sleeves.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I would like to sew the long sleeve again with a rounded neckline that I'll make not as wide. I'd also like to make View A for this summer.
Thought Hmm, I like that. Saw the pattern, I HAVE IT!! Looks very comfortable. Good job.

I love this pattern too, but I agree about the necklines... they are huge.
