Merchant & Mills Top 64

Buy the Top 64 sewing pattern from Merchant & Mills. Inspired by the classic fisherman’s top, this feminine version is more than a jumper but less than a jacket. All decorative topstitching is optional.

Note: If you would like to make a dress in sizes 8-18, a pattern addition (sold separately) is available here.

Suggested fabrics: Medium weight/dress weight wovens, cotton sanded twill, 8-14 oz. denim, linen, corduroy, tencel, tencel/linen, wool tweeds and oilskin. If you want to keep the boxy shape, choose something with structure and body. If you use something like linen it will have a softer, more slouchy look.
