Puff Sleeve Top PATTERN- Big Cotton
Pattern only. After checkout you’ll receive a digital PDF by email.
Full size chart and garment measurements below.
The body of this top is worked flat in two separate pieces. The front panel is worked in garter stitch and the back panel is worked in stockinette, but the finished garment is reversible — in other words, you can wear it so that the stockinette panel is on the front and the garter panel is on the back. Once the two body panels are completed, they are seamed together at the shoulders and underneath the armholes. Sleeve stitches are then picked up from the body of the garment, and the sleeves are worked in the round.
