I’ve made this top before so I knew it would work perfectly this time too. Last time I used a beautiful soft modal from Tessuti Fabrics. The fit was snug on hubby, but perfectly comfortable too. This time, I graded the pattern up a smidgen. I was too lazy to re-print the pieces so I just guesstimated. It’s still a snug fit. The cotton jersey I used has a little less 2-way stretch than drapey modal.
The fabric I used is a beautiful, pure cotton Italian jersey. The knit is very fine with a sensationally smooth texture. It’s a truly beautiful fabric. So soft, in fact, that the recipient initially took it for a pyjama top.
Such a nice wife! This wouldn't have made it onto anyone else's body but mine!
