   This is a great top, and I took off a star only because it is listed as “easy” and I didn’t find that to be the case BUT it turned out beautifully. I did adjustments for my petite frame (petite adjustment and narrow shoulder adjustment). I used a polartec fleece for the fabric in a light blue. Did it almost exclusively on my serger machine. The only tricky part for me was the zipper install, I used a gold zip, with the white tape exposed and it looks great. This was one of my greatest Style Arc successes!

   I made a white French terry to, it’s very oversized but looks really smart, the collar is crisp for French terry.

   Love it, I made the Cassia in a blue cotton french terry with matching rib for the collar and cuffs and a matching zip.
   I added a couple of inches to the length and made a narrow lower band. The top stitching gives a professional look. I am looking forward to making my second one ready for when our Aussie weather cools down.

   I went down 2 sizes. I am not a fan of the collar, I found it too large. I used a lighter weight cotton modal French terry knit and it doesn’t lay right. I may try again with interfacing and narrowing the height of the collar and/or using a sturdier knit.

How Do I Know What Size I Am?

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

1. When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
2. Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
3. When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
4. You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:

A. Shoulder Breadth

Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.

B. Upper Arm Girth

This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.

C. Bust

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.

D. Waist

This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.

E. Hip

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
