I normally love the fit of Jalie tops. I cut this one in a size T but it was too big - the neck was too wide and the chest too large. My daughter has broader shoulders and a larger bust so I gave it to her - she is on the right in the photo
.
I like the look of the tulip sleeves, but for some reason, the directions were very confusing to me - the diagram wasn't helpful to me. Normally, I love Jalie's instructions but I didn't like this one.
I used the same black bamboo knit I used for twist top shown in the precious post. I will make this top again but in a size S or maybe even R.
We didn't plan on both wearing our black bamboo tops at the same time but it just worked out that way yesterday so I took advantage of the photo op. LOL
Ooh, Bonnie, these are both great tops! Very fun!
ReplyDeleteLove the tops, but I'm sure I'd look like a football player in the tulip. ;)
ReplyDeleteLove those tops. Too bad that the scoopneck didn't fit you. The twist top is fun. What an interesting detail. The Sophia knit top and polka dot skirt are charming. :) g
ReplyDeleteVery pretty tops! I like their details.
