Buy the 234 Cameos sewing pattern from Folkwear. This pattern includes four feminine camisoles - two to sew, one to knit, and one to crochet. Both of the sewn camisoles button in the front and are from the late Victorian period.
The long-sleeved camisole is gathered into a simple peplum. Groupings of tucks are interspersed with optional lace insertion. The scoop neckline is adjusted with a drawstring and finished with inserted lace, beading, and edging lace. The waistline drawstring laces through beading, and edging lace finishes the peplum and tucked cuffs.
The sleeveless camisole is closely fitted by princess seams and darts, flaring out below the waist in back. The front and back yokes of View B are daintily embellished with tucking and lace insertion, while View A features a plain yoke. Gathered lace finished with narrow bias binding edges the scoop neckline, armholes, and yoke.
The knitted camisole has short, puffed sleeves, a scoop slip-over neck, and a self-drawstring waist with a short peplum. The crocheted camisole is a sleeveless, scoop-neck camisole/vest designed especially to be worn over the sewn long-sleeved camisole, but it can also be worn on its own.
