    Lovely pattern; and such a blank slate for creativity. The added tutorials are a plus in themselves. Comes together quickly too! Love it.

  2. Maria –

    This is a great basic pattern, easy to follow instructions, very few pages to glue together and a quick sew!. It is the perfect blank canvas to make it your own.

    This pattern is super stylish and easy to sew! It is perfect for all seasons, depending on which fabric you choose. It is also super quick to sew!

    I love this pattern!! I love the boxy fit and how versatile it is! 🙂 Very quick and nice sew! Will be making many many tops out of this pattern. 🙂

  6. Olu –

    Refreshingly quick and simple pattern. Works great as a blank canvas to let your creativity flow. I used sweatshirt fleece and added a gold zip down the middle. The kind of pattern I will use again and again. I am really pleased with my purchase.

This is a pattern for the Ryder trousers.

A slouch fit, straight leg style with long length leg. Topstitched seam details give a really individual look, change the stitching colour for a different take, or mix up your fabric choices on different panels.  If your boy goes through knees at record speed why not substitute those panels for a super durable contrast cloth!

The tutorial shows you how to insert a zip fastening the commercial way to create a high end finished look garment.

Fabric recommendation

Main Fabric

Medium weight fabric works well, cotton canvas, twill, linen, corduroy, wool, denim… pretty much anything would look fabulous. Avoid fabrics that are particularly thick or your seams may end up too bulky. Hardshell looks amazing for a sporty Glide Jacket. Fabrics with stretch, like scuba or a quilted knit are doable but may be a tad more tricky to sew.

Lining Fabric

Lightweight cotton or polycotton.

It’s the little details that are key when it comes to this beautiful, easy to sew strappy top. Asymmetrical pleating at the neckline adds an unconventional touch and it’s your choice whether you choose a fully shirred band at the hemline or a delicate frilled trim. Both add that certain je ne sais quoi.

The Pleat Fold Top is perfect for warm summer days and for the cooler evenings pop on a contrast cardigan to complete the look. Make one for the little lady in your life. It’s easy and it doesn’t take long, we know someone who made one whilst cooking fish cakes.
