Simple instructions are included in the paper pattern.
This is a shirt pattern with a design that emphasizes the bust and waist lines, and features puff sleeves for added volume.
Unlike a standard shirt, the collar in this pattern is extra large for a bold look.
The length is designed to be short, so please adjust the length as needed.
After printing, align the matching lines, tape them together, and cut out the pattern.
* Seam allowances are already included in the pattern, so you can use it as is.
* Before cutting, fit the pattern to your body to check the length.
* This design does not include a hem at the original length.
* If you want to make it shorter, adjust the cutting lines before cutting.
