Ruffle Top by Christine Jonson PatternsN

No. 419 Christine Jonson Patterns

Pattern
Ruffle Top by Christine Jonson Patterns
Pattern is very easy to follow directions and construct. 

Fabric
Polyester knit from Hancock Fabric
This fabric is not a great quality, but fine for a quick test run of this pattern.

Conclusion:
I made this top in the late spring and it got too hot to wear or model.  Our first breath of fall and temps below 90 degrees, brought out this top.  The knit fabric is textured, so the crossover is a little bulky on me.  Christine Jonson has directions on her website to make this top a little more modest, so I can drop the camisole under it.  I do want to make another soon!

Ruffle Top with a little wind, but you can see the ruffles better.

  2. Good job! I made this top yesterday. I couldn't find the directions on how to make this more modest on her website, cause I feel like it is showing much more than I am used to. I just put a camisole under it and it feels much better. I love the ruffle and the V neck. I will be making this one again too. I love her patterns and her simple instructions especially the serger instructions as that is how I like to sew knits.
