The Wolf and the Tree's first FREE pattern is finally here!  

FLAIR!

In celebration of 10,000 members, Saskia has created the most awesomely comfortable batwing top. 

It it loose on the top, but is graded in such a way to maintain my womanly shape, yet hiding those chocolate bars I ate last week when I had a sugar craving. 

 


There are a multitude of different options for this top/dress, which include:
- Above knee mini dress
- Tunic/Mini Tress
- Tunic
- Regular Length
- Crop Top
- Regular Bodice
- Short Bodice

I LOVE the ruching effect - essentially, it's the way the fabric sits and just bunches up at the waistband - no ruching is required for this effect!  The looser the fabric, the more stellar the slouchiness. 

I used a ReALLY light sweater knit from Water Tower Textiles, and love its breath-ability, warmth, and versatility. 

As a tester of this pattern, we were given no instructions. 

I finished my first top in half an hour. With NO instructions. 

 

So if you are an intermediate to advanced sewist, Flair will be a great way to expand your fashionable wardrobe.  

If you are a beginner or novice sewist, this is a great way to enter the knit sewing world. It's really not as scary as you think! 

And I betcha can't sew just One!

I sew all my clothes with *gasp* a plain Jane Viking Husqvarna Emerald Sewing Machine - their base model. There's 8 stitch options. 

No serger.

No Coverstitch machine. 

Just stretch stitches and zig zags to finish it off. 

Yes, I've heard Sergers are quicker, but this is what I have, and that's okay. She's a workhorse!

***Affiliate Links Above used - I love these patterns, and without the help of those who love their patterns, marketing would be extremely difficult for the pattern makers we love and learn to love. Affiliate links help with the hours, fabric, and tears that go behind testing each pattern in order to provide a real-person view on the patterns for you (and me!)
