The Matcha is a swingy, easy to sew top with a stunning, mandarin inspired neckline. Designed to highlight your gorgeous collar bone and draw the eyes up to your face, it leaves your waist free to move around comfortably. Both sleeveless and sleeved versions feature a unique shoulder construction that visually squares off and balances your shoulders. The Matcha hits at the hip and is breastfeeding friendly. Show off your favorite bracelets and bangles with the elbow length, beautifully angled sleeves, and sew up the sleeveless version to pair perfectly with a cardigan or jean jacket, making it an essential all season pattern. Level: Confident beginner. Suggested fabric: mid weight, soft fabric with a nice drape. Good options include cotton ikat, double gauze, rayon, and silk crepe de chine and charmeuse. Some linens will work, as long as they drape well. Amazing pattern, perfect for dressmaking. SLP013
