I AM Patterns Baloo Tee, Sweatshirt and Dress

Buy the Baloo Tee, Sweatshirt and Dress sewing pattern from I AM Patterns. I am a t-shirt, sweatshirt and dress with 15 variations. I have a relaxed fit, and my neckline is finished with ribbing. I come in five different styles. The short versions are crop tops with two waist finishes: one elasticated, the other hemmed. I also have a sweatshirt version that stops at the high hip and is finished with an elasticated hem, and one that ends at the hip with a single folded hem just like a classic tee. The final version is a dress with a double gathered flounce which is sewn at hip level and stops mid-thigh. I have three set-in sleeve options: a short sleeve like a t-shirt, a long fitted sleeve, and a long wide sleeve finished with an elasticated hem.
