| Simplicity 1938 in rayon blend jersey |
I just completed this casual top.
I may have mentioned I got a stripe jersey in a rayon blend when I was in Oakland. I love rayon jersey. Love it! Many of my (and your) favorite RTW drapey tops, skirts, and PJs are probably made of this wonder fabric. So you'll be glad to hear that this stuff isn't too difficult to sew with.
This is the second stretch garment I've attempted and I'm fairly happy with the results. Perhaps a B for execution but A for wearability.
I reused Simplicity 1938. I left the lower hem raw, shortened the sleeves to the elbow, adding elastic. This jersey behaved pretty differently as you can see comparing the first top to the second. I don't know what else to say about this top other than I'm sure I'll wear it all the time!
