Sophie&Ellis top and shorts - PDF pattern
Who doesn’t love a double pattern? With the Sophie top and Ellis shorts, we’re adding a brand-new duo to our collection! Sophie is a sleeveless summer top that ties with a knot at the left shoulder, giving the design a playful and lighthearted touch. The knot is a separate pattern piece, so you can also make Sophie as a simple sleeveless top if you prefer. The elegant boat neckline beautifully completes the design.
Sophie pairs perfectly with the Ellis shorts—fitted, mid-waist shorts featuring a waistband and an invisible zipper in the side seam. The front has a center seam with integrated pockets, creating a sleek yet practical detail. At the back, two darts on each piece ensure a flattering, well-shaped fit, while the added ease makes Ellis suitable for woven fabrics without stretch.
