Last year I brought you all a Bell Sleeve add on pattern, and this year I've raised the bar so that you all can raise your arms in..... NEW SLEEVES. On the 8th day of Christmas, Winter Wear Designs is bringing you the Sleeve Collection Add On Pack. Can I get WOOT WOOT!!!!
One of the things that I love about sewing is that something simple like a sleeve or a neckline can completely change the look of a base pattern that you love. Sleeves are always fun, but dramatic sleeves are hitting current fashion in a big way. So I've brought you 3 new sleeve designs that are inspired by the runways but practical and wearable in real life.
Here I've paired the Gathered Poet with the Neck Tie Top, the Mini Flounce with the Classic Shell, and the Bishop Sleeve with the Outer Banks Boatneck.
Here are the three sleeves that are included in this collection:
· Fitted Sleeve with Circle Flounce - This is a fitted sleeve with 2 flounce lengths, Mini and Grande. The Mini flounce will give you a 3/4 length sleeve and the Grande flounce will give you a full length sleeve.
· Gathered Poet Sleeve -This sleeve is gathered along the sleeve cap and has a full sleeve that is gathered to a fitted cuff that hits just below the elbow.
· Bishop Sleeve with Cuff - This sleeve is fitted through the upper arms and then bells out to give a full lower half that gathers to a long fitted cuff.
All three of these sleeves will work with the following patterns:
- The Tidewater Tee
- The Outer Banks Boatneck
- The Banded Tee
- The Magnolia
- The Neck Tie Top
- The Cross Hem
- The Omega (Knit Hack)
- The Classic Shell (Knit Hack)
