Pattern Description:
Stolen Silver Spoons Lite is a v-neck raglan worked in overall stockinette stitch with accent lace. Compound raglan shaping, optional a-line shaping, and optional bust darts are included for a tailored fit. The lace motif continues down the entire body.

This garment is the lighter, more laid-back version of the Stolen Silver Spoons Crop. Much like its more fitted counterpart, I hope this garment brings you peace, rest, and calm - whether you’re a fan of The Hobbit or not.

Fit Notes:
Choose the size closest to your Actual Bust measurement: 28 (32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 68) in / 71 (81.5, 91.5, 101.5, 112, 122, 132, 142, 152.5, 162.5, 172.5) cm.

This pattern is intended to fit with 0-1” of positive ease at the full bust, growing to 4 inches of ease at the hips if the optional a-line shaping written into the pattern is followed. Optional Bust Darts are included as well to ensure the best fit possible. If you’d like a garment with more ease at the full bust, feel free to size up. Just know that it may affect the fit under the arm, resulting in a slightly baggier look.

PLEASE NOTE: Sizes 10 and 11 have not yet been tested. If you fit within the size range for either sizes and would be willing to give feedback on fit, please send me a message and I will happily send you a code for a free copy of Stolen Silver Spoons!
