Helen's Closet Cassidy Wrap Top

Buy the Cassidy Wrap Top sewing pattern from Helen’s Closet. The Cassidy Wrap Top is a fun and versatile pattern that will quickly become a favourite in your wardrobe. Two views are provided and you can easily mix-and-match features to create your perfect wrap top. View A is longer and has short grown-on sleeves and a narrow waist tie. View B is cropped and features long sleeves and a wide waist tie. Both views have a topstitched neck facing and gathers under the bust and at the centre back waist. Cassidy can be styled as a dressy or casual top, and the waist tie can be tied in a larger bow in the back or wrapped around and tied in a small knot in the front.

This sewing pattern is available to buy in the following formats:

– PDF (available to download immediately after purchase). What is a PDF?

– PDF pattern + Printed A0 copy shop (We print out the A0 pattern sheets, but you’ll need to download the digital instructions, as we don’t print these. The PDF files will be emailed immediately after purchase, and the A0 pattern sheets will be dispatched next working day). What is Copy Shop?

Note if purchasing copy shop printing: The pattern pieces for the ties have been split (to fit on the A0 sheets) and will need to be joined together.

Suggested fabrics: Lightweight woven fabrics with no stretch. Linen, cotton (lawn, poplin, batiste, voile, seersucker, shirting, double gauze), Tencel twill, and rayon/viscose challis or poplin will work well. Structured fabric like crisp cotton lawn will have more dramatic volume and drapier fabrics like rayon challis will have more fluid movement.

Fabric requirements: Allow extra fabric for pattern/print matching with large scale prints.

View A: 57" (145 cm) wide fabric: 1.3 - 2.2 yd (1.2 - 2 m) // 45" (115 cm) wide fabric: 1.7 - 2.6 yd (1.6 - 2.4 m).

View B: 57" (145 cm) wide fabric: 2.1 - 2.8 yd (1.9 - 2.6 m) // 45" (115 cm) wide fabric*: 2.5 - 3.6 yd (2.3 - 3.3 m).

*For sizes 18 - 34 in this view and fabric width, the wide tie needs to be cut on the cross grain. If you are using a directional print, you may want to piece the tie together out of smaller lengths of fabric so you can cut it on the grainline. In this case, you will need 1 m/yd extra.

Sizing: US 0 – 34 (approx. UK 6 – 34, based on our standardised size chart). This pattern includes two size options. There is a B-cup pattern for sizes 0 – 22 and a D-cup pattern for sizes 12 – 34. Please also check the designer’s size chart and finished garment measurements.

To find your cup size, please refer to the bust size calculation worksheet in the image gallery.
