Sinclair Patterns has come out with another amazing pattern--the Lauren Top and Dress.
I chose to sew up a top with 3/4 sleeves in a drapey sweater knit.
I made the error of using more of a 2-way stretch than a 4-way--this fabric has minimal vertical stretch. It would definitely work better in 4-way but is definitely still wearable in what I'll call 2-way!

The drapes fall so nicely and the neckline is done so that I can bend over without any modesty issues.
It looks great either with jeans or a skirt, hemmed or banded.
The asymmetrical neckline is what drew me to the pattern at first--it is different from any of the other patterns I have in my big stash of patterns.
Be sure to pick up your copy of the pattern here!
This looks great. I'm not normally a fan of wrap style tops, they often fall so low, but this is fabulous.
