Selwyn Pintuck Top

This pattern is available to active Cashmerette Club members only. This is the PDF pattern for June 2023 and includes sizes 0-32.

Stitch up something special with the Selwyn Top! This lightweight woven blouse is designed for a gape-free fit for curves with shoulder princess seams and our signature multi-cup sizes. The Selwyn features stylish pintucks, a banded collar and a grown-on front yoke—all perfect for adding some seriously stunning details to your wardrobe. An over-the-shoulder ruffle provides a flouncy and fun cap sleeve, or leave it off for a clean and polished sleeveless look.

Want even more sleeve options? The Selwyn pairs perfectly with the Vernon Shirt's traditional long sleeves with narrow cuffs or its fashion-forward lantern sleeves with dramatic wide cuffs. And top it off with the Vernon's covered button placket for next-level sophistication!

This Cashmerette pattern includes:

  • Cup sizes from C to H
  • A sizing calculator which will tell you exactly which size to make
  • A beautifully illustrated and detailed instruction booklet, to guide you no matter your sewing level 
  • A free video sewalong that you can watch anytime
