The Kit Dolman Pattern by Petite Stitchery


Today I wanted to share the new Kit Dolman that has also released from Petite Stitchery. It comes in different lengths and has the option of sleeves, no sleeves or adding a flounce. I mixed it up and did the top front length with tunic back. The side split can go as hi or low as you like. I got my hands on this beautiful jersey which looks amazing made up. Super soft and light weight perfect for summer.

Its the weather for shirt dresses and this lovely embroidered pineapple pinstripe cotton, just had to be made into a shirt.
