Sew a polo Dress or Top with the Carly PDF sewing pattern!
Carly is a polo style knit Dress & Top pattern that will slot right into your everyday wardrobe. It features a classic polo collar with a collar stand and a button placket.
The placket is interfaced for stability, so you can add buttonholes and buttons, press fasteners or just omit all closures and wear it open for a relaxed look.
For an extra special touch, the instructions will show you how to enclose the raw edges of the collar section with woven bias binding for a beautiful finish and the chance to add a pop of colour using some woven scraps from your stash!
Make Carly as a versatile Top or a contemporary midi Dress. Both versions can be made with a long sleeve, perfect for the colder months, or a short sleeve with a wide cuff. Have a look at the Carly versions made by our wonderful Pattern Insiders.
A shaped seam at the centre back will help you get a really nice fit that skims the body without being too tight. The Carly Dress also includes a stylish split at the hem for ease of movement.
The Carly Dress & Top is a Confident Beginner PDF Pattern available in our full range of sizes UK 6-30, split into two blocks: sizes 6-20, drafted for a B cup, and sizes 18-30, drafted for a D cup.
