Sizing:

This pattern comes in two size options. Size UK 4-18 (roughly US 0-14) and size UK 16-32 (roughly US 12-28). There is no real difference between the two files other than the waistband has been split on the 16-32 file in order to allow the pattenr pieces to sit on various width fabrics. The darts have been extended slightly too and there is a very slight amount of extra added ease, but other than this, the pattern sizes are quite similar.

Skill level:

This pattern is labelled as advanced beginner, due to the skills needed to insert an invisible zip and lining, however I have included detailed instructions on how to insert an invisible zip and how to attach the lining so if you are a beginner with some experience and want something a little more challenging, just take it slow and don't rush it, and always make a sample before the final garment!

A basic knowledge of how to use a sewing pattern, and basic sewing machine knowledge is needed for this pattern.

...........................................................................................

Please note, some files will download as .zip files. You will need to unzip the files before using. On an apple computer you can double click the zipped file, and this will open a new folder that contains the patterns.
On a windows computer you will need to right click on the .zip folder, and click "extract all".

This is a PDF file, and therefore will need to be opened in a programme that accepts pdf format. Adobe reader works well and can be downloaded online completely free for windows/mac! "Preview" also works well on Apple Mac computers.

You only need to print the files that are relevant to you.
For example, if you are a UK customer and print on an A4 sized printer, you will want to download both A4 files, but can ignore the US Letter sized files.
If you are a UK customer and want to print your pattern file at a printshop in large format, download the A0 printshop file, to print at a printshop, and then download the A4 pattern and instruction file for your instructions.

Extra info:

Please sew a test sample before using your final fabric, (in a similar fabric to that of your final fabric) to ensure a good fit, and to allow for any alterations needed before sewing the final garment.
