Overview
This is a free, casual bodice sloper pattern meant for children. What is a sloper?
There is no ease added to this draft. Use the bust/chest ease and across back ease values to add wearing or design ease.
The shirt will draft to the hip level, but uses the bust/chest as the width. If the hips are wider, this may not fit properly without added ease.
You can adjust the armhole drop, which is 1/2" / 1.5cm by default. This is suggested for heights of 31.5-45.5" / 80-116cm. Increase to 0.6" / 1.75 for heights of 48-55" / 122-140cm and .75" / 2cm for heights over 57.5" / 146.
If a sleeve length isn't specified, it will draft to the full overarm length. The wrist width is determined by the wrist measurement.
This garment includes the following patterns:
- 86-Bodice Sloper Child Front
- 87-Bodice Sloper Child Back
