Paradise Patterns Rose Raglan Shirt Sewing Pattern PDF
The Paradise Patterns Rose Raglan Button Up is a fun take on an over-sized classic shirt. It has raglan sleeves, and instead of a classic back yoke, the yoke is part of the sleeve. You have the option of a classic two piece collar or a convertible one piece collar, curved hem, or a banded straight hem, and pleated sleeves or wide sleeves. You can mix and match between the different views as you like. Instead of a traditional sleeve placket, the slit sits in the sleeve seam. The flat felled seams mean that you will be able to see topstitching, so you can choose either matching or contrasting thread.
A physical print out of the instruction booklet will NOT be included. You can view the instruction booklet on your device at home, print it out at home, or add the 'printed pattern instructions' product (see link below) to your order and we will print it for you.
This pattern is made for woven fabrics. The look and feel of the shirt will change a lot depending on the fabric you choose. Something light like cotton lawn or seersucker will make the perfect beach cover-up or pyjama top. Something mid-weight like linen, chambray, or cotton poplin will make a gorgeous everyday shirt. Flannel would make it a cozy over-shirt, and you could even make it in denim or canvas for more of a jacket feel.
