You’ll find options for short, 3/4, or long sleeves, plus optional elbow patches for a fun detail.
To make this top, grab a lightweight jersey knit with 40 to 50% stretch, like cotton, rayon, or linen knit. The pattern comes in a broad size range from 34 to 60, making it easy to sew a comfortable fit. Because of its classic shape and versatile options, this DIY project works great with solid colors, bright prints, or classic stripes to pair with any outfit.
