I think if I were to use a knit on this top, I would only use a single layer for the ruffles to eliminate some of the weight. You could either serge or leave raw the hem edge of the ruffles. I have seen this pattern before, but never wanted to buy it. Now I do! 7/21/09 0:24 AM

fuzzygalore said... Can you just remove the ruffles and save this top somehow? I can totally see how doubled ruffles would not work at all in a knit, in fact I don't think you could even hem it without destroying the drape.. 7/21/09 4:33 PM

After reading your reviews I went and got the pattern and may even try some of these. Seperate pattern pieces for bust sizes was also a deciding factor. 7/23/09 9:40 PM
