It all started with this image I found on the interweb many years ago and resulted in a #PatternPuzzle post to unpack this fascinating idea.  And finally it's a digital sewing pattern for everyone to download.  Like many vintage sewing patterns they use fashion illustrations rather than photographs to promote the pattern.  And the cover suggests you can wear this wrap top wrapped to the front and to the back.  In my experience it didn't work out that way and worn with the wrap at the back it was far too tight across the throat to be comfortable.

It's been happening for the past three months and will continue until I run out of sewing patterns (duh never!).  Every time I release a brand new pattern a few days later I send my newsletter subscribers a huge (50%) discount code for that new pattern and a special category of my PDF sewing patterns.  So if you're not subscribed you've got about two days to sign-up to get that wonderful special.
My latest sewing pattern, the Tab Polo Tee is a colourful take on the classic Fred Perry Tennis Polo.  The body of the garment is made from two-way (four-way US) stretch knit fabric with a reasonable (4-8%) elastane content and the tab and collar are made from a mix of eclectic printed woven cotton fabric.
