Pattern Description: Easy Dolman Sleeve top with 4 sleeve variations and 4 neckline variations. Suitable for knit fabrics only.

Pattern Sizing: A (6-16)

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes it did.

Were the instructions easy to follow? The instructions were easy to understand.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I love this pattern. It is quick and easy to sew. It looks great and it is very comfortable to wear.

Fabric Used: I used a lightweight poly knit purchased from Spotlight.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I made view A with no alterations in a size 12. I found the neckline to be a bit wide on me. Next time I will make the neckband a little shorter to draw the neckline in slightly, so it sits a bit better.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I will definitely be sewing this one again. I would love to try out all the sleeve and neckline variations.

Conclusion: I love this pattern and I can see myself making quite a few of these tops. They are so comfortable to wear and are quite figure flattering on me. I can't recommend this pattern enough. More photos Click here

Cute top. I made this at least 7 years ago and also found the neckline wide. I have full intention of making another.
