Download - Elise Pattern Final
the elise teethe elise teeA little bit pretty and a little bit tough.
The Elise jersey tee has a loose fit and a wide, deep neckline for plenty of decolletage flaunting. The armholes and neckline are finished with delicate
self bands and the slightly scooped hem is left un-finished. Search your local shops for the lightest
jersey you can find and I guarantee this tee will be in high wardrobe rotation.
Sizes: S, M, L

WHAT YOU WILL NEED
TOOLS
RECOMMENDED FABRIC
• fabric shears• pins• marking pen or chalk• pattern weights (or books, plates,bricks etc)
Try to use the lightest weight jersey you can find. Recommended con-tents are modal, viscose, tencel & supima cotton. A spandex or Lycra blend will work well.
This tee would also work with a lightweight woven in either the front or back. Keep one side knit as well as the neck and armhole bands to ensure fit. Suitable wovens would be chiffon, rayon, crepe de chine or lace. So pretty!

NOTES
• pre-wash fabrics to prevent shrinkage and remove sizing
• all pattern pieces include 1 cm (3/8”) seam allowances
• using a 4-thread overlock stitch for all seams is best but a straight stitch with zigzag finshed seams will also work
• pattern can be printed on letter or A4 paper
• in instruction diagrams grey indicates the right side of the fabric and white indicates the wrong side of the fabric.
