To draft the pattern, trace a copy of your basic block without darts and matching sleeve. We suggest 12 to 14cm ease on bust circumference.

Shorten back and front to desired length (we suggest 5 to 8cm above hip level). The discarded parts can be turned into a ribbed band or can be eliminated if you prefer a plain style.

On sleeve, draw a fitted cuff – if you use rib knit, make it as your wrist circumference +2cm ease and 12 to 16cm high. Sleeve is shortened by a slightly smaller measurement (10 to 14cm). Trace separate copies of sleeve and cuff.

Measure down from shoulder point 9 or 10cm along armhole line on both back and front – this is the point where side panels start, and it matches approximately to armhole notches.

Lines are slightly slanted inwards.
