My First Top of the Month-B5185


I completed this top last week. It is view B of B5185. A close-fitting, pullover, hip or below-hip length top has surplice front, forming knot and asymmetrical side front opening. Finished the hem with a narrow machine stitch. It looks alright, but I am not fond of how the fabric hangs in the lower front opening. I think maybe I should have used a fabric with not as much stretch. We'll see. Otherewise, it was an easy sew project.

  2. I love the pattern! The top looks great, and just like the picture. I don't think the front is hanging weird at all. If you are worried about stretchy fabrics and how they hang, let the top hang for 24 hours before hemming it. Great job!
