SUKI KIMONO STYLE TOP PDF digital download sewing pattern to make a hip length top, with large drapey sleeves, two patch pockets and a centre front band. French seams encase some of the visible inside side seams, so no need for an overlocker.
An easy quick make, suitable for beginners with some previous sewing experience.
A Youtube Sewing Street TV tutorial is available to watch me making a Suki Kimono via the link on Suki Kimono page at www.sewgirlblog.com.Suki is now available in an extended size range S-XXL (UK 8-28/ US 6-26).
The size chart for measurements and information about fabric requirements can be seen in the last picture.
Fabrics suitable for your project: any drapey fabric would be suitable such as viscose, lightweight cotton or linen/linen mixes, polyester or silk or even thicker weight fabrics would make a nice Autumn jacket version such as cable knit or pre-quilted fabric. For fabric requirements please see last image.
