Bring some romance to your wardrobe with the Photinia Top & Dress!

The Photinia is a loose fitting, timeless and versatile top and dress featuring a gathered neckline and various sleeve options. Views 1 & 3 feature short sleeves with cuffs that can be folded up or left as is. Views 2 & 4 feature long sleeves that can be worn in a number of seasons. Both dress versions hit right at the knee and can be tied with optional ties to cinch the waist or left alone for a comfortable and easy look. Dress versions also feature inset pockets. 

The neckline can be gathered with a bias binding or elastic (suitable for beginners).

The pattern also features 3 additional views/sleeve variations including a gathered sleeve with cuff (shown on Gyasti in pink), an elasticized wrist (shown on Erica in the green) and a ruffle sleeve (shown on Rebecca in orange).
