The Vera Knit Top is a stylish free PDF pattern designed for knit fabrics, offering both comfort and elegance. It features a flattering V-neck, full bishop sleeves with two cuff options. The pattern is fitted at the bust and relaxed at the waist, making it versatile for a variety of body shapes.

This top includes step-by-step instructions and diagrams, making it suitable for confident beginners and intermediate sewists. The optional scoop neck expansion adds even more flexibility to the design.

Pattern Features:

– Available in A0 and A4/US letter formats for easy printing.
– Layered PDF files allow users to print only the sizes they need.
– Comes with a projector file for those using projectors to cut fabric.
– Instructions for sewing gathers, V-neck neck bands, and fitted cuffs.

Fabric Suggestions:

The Vera top is ideal for light to medium-weight knits with at least 10% stretch. Recommended fabrics include cotton jersey, viscose jersey, merino jersey, and sweater knits. For those looking for extra warmth, merino fabric with a long cuff creates a cozy, sophisticated look, while lighter fabrics like viscose knit without cuffs make for a breezy summer option.

Skill Level:

This pattern is perfect for intermediate sewists, but confident beginners can also give it a go. The V-neck requires careful attention, so for an easier project, the paid scoop neck expansion might be a better choice.
