SEWING LEVEL
FIT AND EASE OF TOP
The Rātā Top has been created to fit well around the neck, shoulders and bust (including darts for shaping), and a loose hanging fit around the waist and hips. The Top will land at the middle hip which is perfect for tucking in, for instance.
When you are choosing what size to create, measure around the bust (the fullest part of bust). Use the bust measurement to determine what size you are in this pattern.
This pattern has been created using Standard American Measurements and might seem different to what you usually buy in stores. Therefore, use the size the chart says you are to fit the bust.
