The Zoetic Blouse is a feminine style sewing pattern with inclusive sizing. The Zoetic features long billowing sleeves and a curvy tunic shape. We were inspired by vintage menswear patterns and included details, such as the triangular armhole, to give you a unique look. The Zoetic includes 2 separate size ranges, straight sizing for 2-20 and a plus size range for sizes 14-40. The Zoetic Blouse sewing pattern features couture finishing techniques to enhance your sewing skills and up level your manifestations. We'll guide you through a couture neckline with a bound keyhole at the back neck. We also have sleeve cuffs with plackets on sheer sleeves. The armholes are triangular at the shoulder, which are finished with a flat felled seam. Finally, you'll hand finish the curved vents at the hem. Though each detail has challenges, the total outcome is a deceivingly simple couture garment. The Zoetic Blouse is an intermediate to difficult level pattern.
