The Tavi Top is a timeless wardrobe staple with a clean, modern silhouette. This sleeveless shell top features a semi-fitted shape with bust darts for gentle shaping, extended shoulders for a contemporary feel and a buttoned back fastening that adds a lovely finishing detail. Elegant in its simplicity, Tavi is just as useful layered beneath jackets and cardigans as it is worn on its own during warmer months.
This versatile pattern works beautifully in a range of light to medium-weight woven fabrics. Linen and linen blends create an effortless everyday top, while cottons offer crisp structure and silk dupion or lightweight wool lend a more polished look. Simple to sew and endlessly wearable, Tavi is the sort of pattern you'll return to again and again.
Recommended fabrics: Light to medium-weight linen or linen blends, cottons, cotton blends, lightweight wool and silk dupion.
