Pamela's Patterns - Pleated Back Flowy Tee Sewing Pattern

This will be your new go-to-top! It's casual and polished at the same time and perfect to throw on over jeans, capri-pants and slim pants. The silhouette is flowy and tunic length, with a slightly longer back - which means it will hide a multitude of fluff and scallops. The front has a nice semi-fitted look, but when you turn around, the back is what really sets it apart. The lower back has a shirt tail hem and box pleat, sewn into a slightly curved low back yoke. As a detail option, add an exposed zipper at the back neckline for a cool trendy look. Choose between two scoop necklines and several sleeve lengths, including a flattering roll back cuff.

Suggested Fabrics: Good quality knit fabric including polyester, rayon, cotton with lycra, blends. Fabric types include ITY, jersey, novelty, stretch lace, lightweight sweater knits. Choose a fabric with some drape to show off the flowy style.
