Retro Wrap PDF Sewing Pattern (Download)
$18.00 – $72.00
The Retro Wrap is a version of a fascinating vintage sewing pattern that has been the subject of much sewing chat online. The fit and shape of the garment has a strong retro vibe, flattering the waist and creating drape around the neckline as you tighten the wrap ties. Typical of the era it has a three-quarter sleeve that can be lengthened if desired.
The sample featured in the attached images is the medium size displayed on a size 12 workroom dummy. It’s equivalent to Size 12 on my Size Chart listed here on the website.
The most important aspect of this sewing pattern is that to be successful it must be cut in two-way (four-way stretch in the US) stretch knit. For more detailed information checkout the full description below.
Your download will include:
- The PDF sewing pattern in your preferred print format – A0 (2 pages), A4/letter (36 pages) or 36″ Plotter print (1.9m/2.1yds).
- A PDF download (12 pages) with a size chart, fabric usage chart and lay-plans.
- In addition there’s a PDF document with sewing instructions (13 pages).
My PDF block and sewing pattern downloads can be printed as A0 or 36” plotter print at your local print shop or as A4/letter at home. Please be sure when you go to the print shop or print at home that you select for printing at ‘actual size’ with ‘no scaling’, or at 100%.
This pattern is available for personal and home use as well as business and educational. Use the drop down menu to make your selection.
Description
The Retro Wrap is a version of a fascinating vintage sewing pattern that has been the subject of much sewing chat online. I’ve sampled and altered this particular idea to perfect the make and fit to suit today’s fabrics and lifestyle.
The fit and shape of the garment has a strong retro vibe, flattering the waist and creating drape around the neckline as you tighten the wrap ties. Typical of the era it has a three-quarter sleeve that can be lengthened if desired.
The sample featured in the attached images is the medium size displayed on a size 12 workroom dummy. It’s equivalent to Size 12 on my Size Chart listed here on the website.
The most important aspect of this sewing pattern is that to be successful it must be cut in two-way (four-way stretch in the US) stretch knit. The sewing pattern consists of two pieces only, the front, back and sleeve as one piece and a long sash. It’s a quick and easy make using stretch stitches for the seams and hems.
You wrap the top across the front and around the back, returning to the front to tie a generous bow. The length of the waist tie is generous and may need to be altered according to the width of your fabric. All that is important is that you maintain the notches on the waist tie so they can match back the the waistline of the top pattern.
