This is a sewing pattern and tutorial for a simple shawl-collar blouse (short sleeves) with side darts.
The children’s and men’s sizes are drafted without side darts.
The pattern has a relaxed fit. If you plan to modify it for cosplay costumes, it may be better to make the pattern slightly slimmer.
The men’s size pattern has wider shoulders, no side darts, and a straighter waist shape.
After printing, align the joining lines, tape the pages together, and cut out the pattern. Seam allowances are already included, so you can use it as it is.
What is "Grainline" / "cut on fold"? Please refer to this page.
(1) Sew the front darts and press the seam allowances to one side with an iron.
* Children’s and men’s sizes do not have side darts, so this step is not required.

(2) Serge/overlock the shoulders and side seams of the front and back. Sew them together and press the seam allowances open with an iron.
