This is a great, easy, quick sewing pattern! I made a size 10 with 1 yard of washed linen from black bird fabrics and I love how it turned out. My one thing I will warn and this could just be me, is that it's a little hard to get on and off around the shoulders. Adding an invisible zip in the side seam could help if that might be an issue for you!

Love this top. It's a simple top from 2 pieces and the fit is perfect! I can also moe freely in it even though its quite fitted to my body, which was, honestly, unexpected and welcomed. I love having this top add something extra with the pleats and the asymmetric design. The instructions were simple to follow - though I would bind the neck after sewing the shoulders together next time. Planning on making a second one soon.
