Wrap Top - Christine Jonson

The Wrap Top is a wonderful "dressed up" alternative to a jacket. Paired with the Cuff Pant #945 it makes a wonderful suit look. With only 2 pattern pieces and ties this top sews up quickly. Learn to miter corners and master easy double-needle topstitching. Fabrics with stretch are best. The depth of the V-neck wrap is determined by the way the under wrap is tied. Stretch the left under wrap high over the bustline and tie securely on the inside followed by a similar high stretch over the bustline on the right side for a high V-neck or stretch the wraps lower on the bust for a deeper V.

Paired with the Perfect Pant collection (skinny, flare or classic wide leg pant) it makes a wonderful jumpsuit look. With only two pattern pieces and ties, this top sews up quickly. The Wrap Top also makes a great wrap sweater over a dress or the Perfect Pant Skinny with a Skirt for an athleisure look after yoga.
