No. 10 Sweatsuit Alternative... linen pants & infinity top

Here's my selection for a sweatsuit alternative.

Top - Lightweight Rayon Spandex twisty top....

Paired with some linen pants.

Hmmm I wonder how else I can wear this top!

    I love that blue! Which pattern did you end up using?

    Hi Diane!
    I used a TNT t-shirt pattern and added the draped ties at the side seams.

    I love that top, and the colour too! It looks great with the pants.

    What a great top! I have some nice rayon knit from Denver Fabrics I'm planning to use that for - not sure what piece I'll consider it for.

    Thank you Sue & Annenet! I found one more piece of rayon knit that I might sew up for my regular wardrobe.

    Thanks RiAnge, This was a self draft pattern, I have made up in 6 different ways. What I'm learning is that the different fabrics I've chosen, have yielded different results.

    That looks both very comfortable and elegant! looks like a t-shirtpattern with this added? It's very creative, and I like the endresult!

    It was a t-shirt pattern the panels were draped across the body, then they were sewn into the side seams.
