Sarah is a fun piece with a touch of elegance. It is beautiful by itself on warm days, or it can be layered over a long sleeve tshirt and jeans for a modern take on the classic sweater vest, or under a blazer for the workplace or a night out. Sarah is a racerback sleeveless top with a deep and thick cowl neck. It is knit from the bottom up, beginning with ribbing from the mid-hip to the empire waist. Ribbing all the way up to the empire waist allows the fabric to hug curves and create a very flattering fit. Because of the way the cowl is shaped, Sarah easily fits a wide variety of shapes and bust sizes.

The sizes given above are bust measurements, however for a more accurate fit please also measure your size at the empire waist (your chest size just below your breasts). The corresponding empire waist measurements are: 25”, 27”, 30”, 33”, 36”, 39”, 41”, 44”, 47”. If your empire waist and bust measurements don’t line up, use your empire waist to determine your size. Instructions to modify the bust are given in the pattern.
