Bobbie 3880, A New Pattern from Jalie

Bobbie 3880

Bobbie 3880 is brilliant!  It’s a magic v-neck pullover!  Rounded-V neck dolman top with unique cropped-tank-like facing that keeps the neckline against the body and hides the bra at all times. No more layering, no more unwanted “reveals”, even when you bend over to pick up something on the ground or hail a cab!

The outer layer has a flattering fit, extended shoulder,  and the facing is mid-riff length and a closer to the body fit, which keeps the neckline in place no matter how active you are.

I chose an ITY knit for my outer layer and a thin white cotton poly for the facing.  When I raise my arm, it’s the facing that shows, not my bra.  I really like that.

Bobbie 3880 is really simple to make, you sew the outer layer, then the inner layer and join them by sewing all around the neck edge.  Under-stitching holds the facing in place as well as a few hand stitches where the shoulder seams meet.

I finished the hem of the facing with a simple 4-thread overlock, and the hem of the outer layer with a wide cover-stitch.

This new pattern from Jalie, Bobbie 3880 is a real winner!  28 sizes, for girls and women.
