 From Elizabeth Suzann:

An artfully engineered top built for versatility and adaptability. This blouse can be worn with the knot in the front or the back, and also works wonderfully layered over tanks and dresses. Try tying it loosely for a relaxed fit, or tightly for a waist-cinching, pin-up silhouette. It boasts a low v-neck front- or full coverage in front with a low v-open back. Try tying the knot around the center front or back of your bra to help disguise it and keep the top securely in place.

Simple rolled hems make this top incredibly easy to construct. For an added challenge, try French seams at the side and shoulders, especially if using a sheer or delicate fabric.

Difficulty: 

Beginner difficulty. Suitable for sewers of all levels. This pattern requires topstitching and folding bias cut edge.

Fabric Recommendations: 

Light- to medium-weight fabrics with no stretch will work exceptionally well. Linen, cotton voile, silk crepe, seersucker, tencel, rayon-pretty much anything with some drape will work for this pattern. Lighter-weight fabrics will add more drape, and heavier fabrics will result in a more structured garment. You can even try this in a wool or wool blend for a wintry option.
